Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
συναντιλαμβάνομαι [page 602]
lend a hand along with, take an interest in ( Luk_10:40 , Rom_8:26 ). Deissmann ( LAE 2 , p. 87 f.) has shown that this word, which is included by Thayer in his Biblical list, can be traced throughout the whole of the Hellenistic world. Thus, in addition to its LXX occurrences ( Exo_18:22 , al .), he quotes exx. from Delphi, Syll 250 (= .3 412) .7 ( c . B.C. 260) συναντιλήψεσθαι τῶν τῆι πόλει συμφερόντων , to help in things profitable to the city ; from Pergamum, Perg 18 .26 (B.C. 263 241) τοὺς εἰς ταῦτα συναντιλαμβανομένους , those helping in this : and from Egypt, P Hib I. 82 .18 (B.C. 239 8) καλῶς οὖν [π ]οιήσεις συναν [τι ]λ [α ]μβανόμενος προθύμως περὶ τῶν εἰς ταῦτα συγκυρόντων , thou wilt therefore do well to take part zealously in the things relating thereto. To these we may add PSI IV. 329 .6 (B.C. 258 7), ib . VI. 591 .12 (iii/B.C.) καλῶς ἂν ο [ὖν ποιή ]σαι <ς > συναντιλαβόμενό [ς μου ?. It will be noticed that all our exx. of this verb are from iii/B.C. but LS 8 refer to a passage in Diod. 14. 8.
