Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἀνέρχομαι of ‘‘ going up” to the capital is illustrated by the illiterate P Tebt Il. 412° (late ii/A.p.), ἄνελθε els τὴν μητρόπολιν τοῦ νέου éroys ἐπὶ kalyd dvépxope els τὴν πόλιν : cf. 126. 411° (ii/A.D.) αὐτῇ ὥρᾳ ἄνελθε, ὃ yap κράτιστος ἐπιστράτηγος ἱκανῶς σε ἐπεζήτησε, ‘come up instantly, for his highness the epistrategus has made several inquiries for you” (Edd.), and P Lond 948 verso 3 (A.D. 257) (= III. p. 210) ἀνερχέστω. Other citations are hardly required, but we may add the almost contemporary BGU II. 595!® (c. A.p. 70-80) ὅτι ὁ vids μου ἀσθενῖ Sivas, τούτου εἵνεκα ἀνηρχόμην.
