τρόπος [page 642] manner, way. With the adverbial phrase καθ᾽ ὅν τρόπον in Act_15:11 ; Act_27:25 , cf. the letter of the prodigal son BGU III. 846 .12 (ii/A.D.) (= LAE 2 , p. 187, Selections , p. 94) πεπαίδ̣δευμαι καθ᾽ ὃν δ̣ι̣̑ τρόπον , where, if δι = δή , the meaning would be punished I have been in any case. Wilcken, however, followed by Deissmann, suggests δι = δεῖ , punished I have been as I ought ; cf. P Oxy II. 237 viii. 29 (A.D. 186) καθ᾽ ὂ̣ν̣ ἔδει τρόπον . Similar phrases are P Frankf 1 .81 (B.C. 214 213) κ̣[αθ᾽ ὁντ ]ινοῦν τρόπον , P Grenf II. 31 .16 (B.C. 104) μὴ ἐπικαλεῖν περὶ τοῦ μέρους δανείου τρόπωι μηδενί , P Ryl II. 229 .9 (A.D. 38) ἐκ παντὸς τρόπου , P Oxy II. 263 .13 (A.D. 77) κατὰ μηδένα τρόπον , ib . 286 .11 (A.D. 82) κατὰ πάντα τρόπον (cf.

Michel 545 .7 (ii/B.C.) gives a good ex. of τρόπος = manner of life, as in Heb_13:5 , if we can trust the supplement, ζηλωτὴς δὲ γινόμενος τῶν ἀρίστων συνῳκείου τὸν μὲν [τρό ]πον ἀρετῇ καὶ σωφροσύνῃ , τό τε ἦθος κο ]σμιότητι καὶ εὐσ [χη ]μοσύνῃ : cf. also IG XII. 7 408 .8 ἤθους κοσμιότητι καὶ τρόπων ἐπεικείᾳ .
