ὑπονοέω. For this verb, which is found Ζεγ in Acts (1375, 2518, 2777) = ‘‘ suppose,” cf. P Ryl II. 139!4 (A.D. 34) ὑπονοῶι οὖν τὸ τοιουτω (/. τοιοῦτο) γεγονέναι ὑπὸ τῶν καταγινομένων ἐν τῆι Ληνῶι λεγομένῃ, ‘<I suspect that this has been done by the inhabitants of the so-called Winepress”’ (Edd.), P Oxy I. 69® (A.D. 190) an account of the theft of 10 artabae of barley, ἃς καὶ ὑπονενοηκέναι καθεῖσθαι κατὰ μέρος, ‘“which we guessed had been removed piecemeal,” and 26. XIV. 1680! (iii/iv A.D.) ὑπονοοῦμαι ὅτι πάντως πάλιν τί ποτε ἔχει πρὸς σέ, “1 suspect that he must have some further claim against you” (Edd.). A double comp? καθυπονοέω is seen in P Oxy XII. 1465? (i/B.c.) καθυπονοῶν οὖν eis Σαραπιῶνα, “1 have suspicions against Sarapion,” and P Ryl 11. 146?8 (a.p. 39) καθυπονοῶ δὲ τοὺς ἐν τῷ ἔποικίῳ καταγεινομένους, ‘‘and I suspect the residents in the farmstead.
