συγκυρία [page 595]
With the phrase κατὰ συγκυρίαν in Luk_10:31 we may compare κατὰ δέ τινα συν (τυχεί )αν τελευτήσαντος αὐτοῦ ἐν τῆι Διο (σπόλ )ει in P Tor II. 8 .63 (B.C. 119).
For the verb see P Hib I. 82 .19 (B.C. 239 8) περὶ τῶν εἰς ταῦτα συγκυρόντων , in all that concerns this, and its common use in connexion with the appurtenances of a house, e.g. P Tebt II. 381 .12 (A.D. 123) (= Selections , p. 78) οἰκίαν καὶ αὐλὴν καὶ τὰ συνκύρωντα (for form see OGIS p. 117) πάντα . Συγκυρέω is similarly used in P Oxy VI. 907 .9 (A.D. 276) χρηστήρια καὶ συνκυροῦντα πάντα , utensils and all appurtenances. In the Greek Pentateuch συνκυροῦντα is one of the four terms to denote suburbs (see Thackeray Gr. i. p. 4 n. .4 ) : cf. P Lond 604 .2 (A.D. 47) (= III. p. 71) παρὰ . . . Σωτη̣[ρίχ ]ο (υ ) κωμογραμμ (ατέως ) Κροκοδείλων πόλεως καὶ τ [ῶν σ ]υνκυρουσῶν κωμῶν .
