Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
φαρμακός, ““a sorcerer ’’ (Rev 215). For the corr. verb φαρμακεύω, cf. P Oxy III. 4721 (c. A.D. 130) kal yap ἀπὸ τῆς ἐκείνου οἰκίας ἐξεληλύθει πεφαρμακεῦσθαι λέ[γω]ν, ‘for it was from his house that he came out saying that he had been poisoned ” (Edd.), and similarly 7°. A striking ex. is also afforded by the Jewish prayers invoking vengeance on the murderers or poisoners of two innocent girls, e.g. Syd/ 816 (=*118r)® (ii/B.c.—i/B.c.) (= Deissmann ZA£?, p. 414)— ᾿Επικαλοῦμαι καὶ ἀξιῶ τὸν θεὸν τὸν ὕψιστον, τὸν κύριον τῶν πνευμάτων καὶ πάσης σαρκός, ἐπὶ τοὺς δόλωι φονεύσαντας ἢ φαρμακεύσαντας τὴν ταλαίπωρον ἄωρον Ἡράκλεαν ἐγχέαντας αὐτῆς τὸ ἀναίτιον αἷμα ἀδίκως κτλ. “T call upon and pray the Most High God, the Lord of the spirits and of all flesh, against those who with guile murdered or poisoned the wretched, untimely lost Heraclea, shedding her innocent blood wickedly,” etc. (Deissmann). The verb φαρμακόω occurs in P Oxy XII. 1477?° (μιν A.D.) where a petitioner addresses to an oracle the question—el πεφαρμάκῳμαι ; “have I been poisoned?
