Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἀναθάλλω is one of the words that Nageli cites (p. 81) to prove that in Phil 4° ἀνεθάλετε τὸ ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ φρονεῖν, Paul has taken vocabulary from the more cultured Kow/7, through his later intercourse with Greeks. It should be noted, however, that the word is not rare in the LXX (especially in Sirach), five times in this rare tense and four times transitively. It is a curious problem whence the LXX derived it. The simplex occurs in BGU IV. r112'8 (B.C. 4) παρείληφεν δὲ καὶ ἡ Evyévera τὸ παιδίον θάλλουσαν.
