Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

αὐλός [page 92] See the first citation s.v. αὐλητής . In BGU IV. 1125 ὑπαυλισμός is a flute accompaniment. On a possible connexion of αὐλός with Heb ηΘμΗμ bore, pierce, and then pipe, see Lewy Fremdwφrte , p. 165 f. But Lithuanian and Slavonic words given in Boisacq s.v. are much closer; and there is ἔναυλος , ravine, to be reckoned with.
