συγκυρία. With the phrase κατὰ συγκυρίαν in Lk 10%! we may compare κατὰ δέ τινα συν(τυχεί)αν τελευτήσαντος αὐτοῦ ἐν τῆι Διο(σπόλλ)ει in P Tor II. 853 (B.c. 119). For the verb see P Hib I. 8219 (B.c. 239-8) περὶ τῶν els ταῦτα συγκυρόντων, ‘in all that concerns this,” and its common use in connexion with the ‘‘appurtenances”’ of a house, e.g. P Tebt II. 38112 (a.p. 123) (= Selections, p. 78) οἰκίαν καὶ αὐλὴν Kal τὰ συνκύρωντα (for form see OG/S Ρ- 117) πάντα. Συγκυρέω is similarly used in P Oxy VI. 9072 (A.D. 276) χρηστήρια καὶ συνκυροῦντα πάντα, “utensils and all appurtenances.”’ Inthe Greek Pentateuch συνκυροῦντα is one of the four terms to denote ‘‘ suburbs "’ (see Thackeray Gr. i. p. 4 n.4): cf.
