Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

τίνω. In its only appearance in the NT, 2 Thess 1, τίνω is used as in classical writers (e.g. Soph. E/ectya 298) with δίκην = “pay the penalty.” For a similar phrase see P Fay 21%4f (A.D. 134) τὴν προσήκουσαν δίκηϊν ὑἸπόσχωσι, ‘‘ may pay the fitting penalty.” The verb occurs in BGU I. 2428 (time of Commodus) πλ]ηγαῖς πλίσταις pe [ἐτ]είσατο, and in the Christian P Hamb 1. 22° (iv/a.D.) τῖσον ἁπάντη . .. ἐχθροὺς ἡμετέρους, where the editor compares LXX Prov 201%), The proper name Τεισάμενος occurs in P Petr III. 112(/)?° (iii/B.c.). The subst. ἔκτισις, as in P Tebt 11. 384!" (A.D. 10), is merely the later spelling of ἔκτεισις, ““payment in full,’’ which has et in all early inscrr. and papyri (see LS? s.v.). Gr. i. p. 91. See also s.v, ἀποτίνω and Mayser GUS “ath ““who?” ‘*what?” (1) Exx. of this common interrog. pron. are—P Petr 11. 40a*4 (iii/B.c.) γράψατέ μοι, τί[ς παρ᾽ ὑ]μῖν τιμὴ ἐγένετο τοῦ σίτου, P Par 44} (B.C. 153) τί κελεύε[ι]ς ὑπὲρ τούτων ; BGU IV. 10787 (A.D. 39) ὄψομαι, τί με δεῖ ποιεῖν, P Grenf I. 5338 (iv/A.p.) τίνος evyevd(= ε)στερός ἐστι; and P Oxy I. 1205 (iv/A.p.) λοιπὸν τί σοι γράψω οὐκ οἶδα. (2) The use of tls for ὅς, ὅστις, as in Mk 1435, Lk 178, 1 Tim 1’, and in LXX Gen 3855, Lev 2117, is fairly common in the papyri, e.g. BGU II. 66 511-15 (i/a.p.) o]dK ἔχομεν διὰ τίνες (/. τίνος) πέμπωμεν, P Oxy VIII. 115528 (A.D. 104) αὐτὸ τὸ mpdypap<po>a τοῦ ἡγεμόνος ἔπενψά σοι ἵνα
