ὑποβαλλω 3. Ὑπό is used of time = ‘‘about,” only in Ac 574 in NT, cf. P Tebt I. 5018 (B.c. 112) ὑπὲρ ὧν ὑπὸ τὸν καὶ ρὸν παραλαβὼν σέ τε καὶ “Ὥρον, ““1 therefore at the time took you and Horus’’ (Edd.), and PSI II. 1567 (iv/a.p.?) ὑπὸ δὲ τὴν ὥραίν. 4. For the construction with the acc. cf. also such miscellaneous exx. as P Oxy I. 94! (A.D. $3), price received for slaves ἤτοι ὑφ᾽ ἕν ἢ καθ᾽ ἕνα," for one or both of them,” 7d.
