Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἀγράμματος [page 6]
Ἀ . is of constant occurrence in the formula used by one person signing a deed or letter on behalf of another who cannot write ἔγραψα ὑπέρ τινος ἀγραμμάτου , e.g. BGU I. 118 ii. 17 , ib. 152 .6 (both ii/A.D.) : cf. P Oxy II. 275 .43 (A.D. 66) ( = Selections p. 58) Ζωίλος . . . ἔγραψα ὑπὲρ αὐτοῦ μὴ ἰδότος γράμματα . The great frequency of ἀγράμματος , invariably in this sense, suggests that the sneer in Act_4:13 is intended to picture the Apostles as illiterate, and not merely unversed in the learning of the Jewish schools (Grimm). For the place which dictation had in the composition of the NT writings, see Milligan NT Documents , pp. 21 ff., 241 ff.
