ἀποπίπτω [page 67]
This word, which in the NT is found only once ( Act_9:18 ) in its literal meaning of fall off, occurs in a derived sense in P Par 47 .27 ( c. B.C. 153)(= Witkowski .2 p. 90, Selections p. 23) ἰ καὶ αὑτοὺς δεδώκαμεν καὶ ἀποπεπτώκαμεν (one can never again show face in Tricomia for very shame), if we have both given ourselves up and collapsed. Witkowski compares Polyb. i. 87 .1 πίπτω ταῖς ἐλπίσιν . The verb also occurs in the philosophical fragment P Flor II. 113 iii. 19 (ii/A.D.) ἀποπείπτειν τὰ ὦ [τα καὶ αὐ ]τὰς ἀχρείους γενέσθαι : cf. Archiv vi. p. 239.
