Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἀργύρεος [page 74] The adj. in its contracted form (as in 2Ti_2:20 , Rev_9:20 ) is found in P Lond 191 .11 (an inventory of household furniture, A.D. 103 17) (= II. p. 265) φύλλια ἀργυρᾶ ὀκτώ : cf. P. Lond 124 .26 (iv/v A.D.) (= I. p. 122). Constant association with χρυσοῦς produced a mixture of flexion in the fem. : thus ἀργυρῆ BGU II. 388 ii. 22 (ii/iii A.D.), -ῆν P Leid W xxiii. 22 (ii/iii A.D.), but χρυσᾶν Rev_1:13 , P Lond 124 .26 (iv/v A.D.) = I. p. 122). For the uncontracted forms, which do not seem to occur in the Ptolemaic papyri (Mayser Gr. p. 293), see 1 Esr 6 .17 Α τὰ χρυσᾶ καὶ τὰ ἀργύρεα (ἀργυρᾶ B), and cf. the long British Museum magic papyrus P Lond 121 .531 (iii/A.D.) (= I. p. 102) ἐπιγραφόμενον ἐπὶ χρυσέου πετάλου ἢ ἀργυρέου , and OGIS 480 .6 (Ephesus, ii/B.C.) Ἄρτεμιν ἀργυρέαν καὶ εἰκόνας ἀργυρέας δύο . See further Helbing Gr. , p. 34 f. The form ἀργυρικός = of money generally is common both in the papyri and the inscriptions, e.g. P Amh II. 31 .6 (B.C. 112) τὴν σιτικὴν μίσθωσιν καὶ τὴν ἀργυρικὴν πρόσοδον rents in corn and taxes in money (Edd.), P Grenf I. 21 .16 (B.C. 126) ὑ ]πάρχοντά μοι πάντα σύμβο (λά ) τε σιτικὰ [κα ]ὶ ἀργυ (ρικά ) all contracts belonging to me of corn and of money, OGIS 90 .21 (the Rosetta stone, B.C. 196) δαπάνας ἀργυρικάς τε καὶ σιτικὰς μεγάλας : cf. BGU I. 14 ii. 2 (A.D. 255) λόγος ἀργυρικὸς λημμάτων καὶ ἀναλωμάτων , ib. 15 i. 13 (A.D. 194) πράκτορα ἀργυρικῶν .
