Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ὑπάντησις [page 650] agoing to meet. For the verbal phrase construed c. dat., as in Joh_12:13 , cf. P Giss I. 74 .6 (ii/A.D.) Χαιρήμονα ἐξεληλυθ [έναι ] εἰς ὑπάντησιν Οὐλπιανῶι (according to the amended reading in Preisigke s Wφrterb. s.v . ὑπάντησις ). The word seems to be synonymous with ἀπάντησις ( q.v . : cf. Proleg . p. 14, n. .4 ), though, according to Lightfoot ( Notes p. 69) ἀπάντησις is simply meeting, while ὑπάντησις involves the notion of looking out for. ᾽Υπάντησις occurs bis in Syll 365 ( = .3 798) . Joh_12:16 προσέταξε τοῖς ἄρχουσι ψήφισμα ὑπαντήσεως εἰσηγήσασθαι , . Joh_12:23 ἀγαγεῖν δὲ ἐπὶ τὴν ὑπάντησιν καὶ τὸν ἐφήβαρχον τοὺς ἐφήβους .
