συνευωχέομαι, “feast along with,” c. dat., as in 2 Pet 213, occurs in BGU 11. 596%° (a.p. 84) (= Selections, p. 64) ἐρωτηθεὶς κατελθὼν συνευωχηθῆ[ι}] ἡμεῖν, ‘“‘you are also invited to come down and feast along with us.” The simple verb εὐωχέομαι may be cited from OG/S 1684 (B.C. 115) εὐωχηθεὶς ἐπὶ τοῦ Ἡραίου, 26. 383157 (mid. i/B.C.) ὅπως ἕκαστος. . . ἔχῃ τὴν ἑορτὴν εὐωχούμενος ὅπου προαιρεῖται. For the subst. εὐωχία see P Oxy III. 49474 (A.b. 156) where a testator provides for a sum to be paid to his slaves and freedmen for a feast to be celebrated yearly at his tomb on his birthday—els εὐωχίαν αὐτῶν ἣν ποιήσονται πλησίον τοῦ τάφου pov κατ᾽ ἔτος τῇ γενεθλίᾳ μου.
