Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ὁποῖος, though very common in classical Greek, shows a marked tendency to disappear in later Greek. According to Meisterhans (Gy. p. 237) it is not found in the Attic inscrr. from B.C. 300 onwards. The word occurs guzngutes in the NT: cf. P Oxy I. 118 verso17 (late iii/A.D.) εἰδὼς δὲ ὁποία ἐστὶν καὶ ἡ ξενία, “you know what hospitality requires ’’ (Edd.), and BGU IV. 1027**%-" cited s.v. ὄλεθρος. Note the curious combination ὅτι ὁποίαν in P Gen I. 54!* (iv/a.D.) οἶδας τὴν προέ(---αἰ)ρεσίν por ὅτι ὁποίαν προέί --αί)ρεσιν ἔχω καὶ οἶδας τὴν γνώμην μου ὅτι γν[ώ]μη ὁποία ἐστιν.
