Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

Πέρσις. For this proper name (Rom 1612) Rouffiac (Recherches, P. 90) cites exx. not only from Rome (/G II. 768), but from Thespis (7G VII. 2074), and from Egypt (Βα III. 895 (ii/A.D.), as amended p. 8). No conclusive argument can therefore be drawn from it any more than from the other proper names in Rom 16 as to the doca/e of the Church to which they belonged: cf. Lightfoot PAz/éppzans* p. 171 ff., Lietzmann HZNT ad Rom 16, and Milligan Documents, p. 182 ff.
