23.36 · Physiological Processes and States · Eat, Drink

to drink together drink together with others In rendering ACT 10:41 it may be necessary to restructure somewhat the expression of joint activity, for example, ‘we and he drank together’ or ‘he was one with us in drinking together.’ In some languages it may seem strange to speak of ‘eating and drinking,’ since both of these activities are often subsumed under a term for ‘dining.’ It may therefore be preferable in some languages to translate ‘we dined together with him’ or ‘we had our meals together with him.’

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

συμπόσιον, orig. ‘‘a drinking party,’’ ‘‘a banquet,” e.g. Predsighe 1106° (Ptol.) ot συνπόσιον γευόμενοι φιλαγαθίας ἕνεκεν τῆς εἰς ἑαυτούς. From this itis an easy transition to the ‘‘room”’ in which the party was given (Hesych, : συμπόσιον" τόπος εὐωχίας Kal πόσεως) : cf. P Ryl 11. 233° (ii/A.p.) τοῦ μεικροῦ συμποσίου, ‘the small dining-room,” P Oxy VIII. 112814 (A.D. 173), the lease at a rent of 20 drachmae per annum of a dining-room and the store-chamber within it— τὸ συμπόσιον Kal τὴν ἐντὸς αὐτοῦ κέλλαν, 10. 1. 761% (A.D. 179) συμπόσιον καὶ κοιτῶνα, and 16. VIII. 115959 (late iii/A.p.) ἔνεγκον τὸ τυλάριον τ[ὸ] παλαιὸν τὸ ἐν τῷ συμποσίῳ ἄνω, “bring the old cushion that is up in the dining-room "’ (Ed.). In P Flor I. 57 (a.p. 244-5) συμπόσιον ὑπερῷον, συμπόσιον appears to be used as an adj. In Mk 689 συμπόσια συμπόσια the word is extended to the ‘‘companies”’ of diners: the construction can no longer be regarded as Hebraistic, see Pro/eg. p. 97.
