Moulton's Greek scholarship are too well known to require acknowledgment here, but I may be allowed to record my own deep sense of personal loss in the removal at the height of his powers of one who was always the truest of friends and the most loyal ofcolleagues.It may be well, perhaps, to emphasize that it was in no way our aim to provide a complete Lexicon to the Greek New Testament, but rather to show the nature of the new light cast upon its language by the rich stores of contemporary papyri discovered in recent years. (See further the General Introduction to the present volume.) Apart from the papvri, considerable use has been made of the Greek inscriptions, and evidence from other non-literary sources has been freely cited, wherever it seemed likely to be useful. Very often words have been included for which our non-literary sources provide no illustration, in order to show from literary evidence, if forthcoming, or from its very absence, the relation of such words to the popular Greek.

H. Thayer's monumental edition of Grimm's Lexicon (Edinburgh, 1886), has been assumed throughout. Professor Souter's Pocket Lexicon to the Greek New Testament (Oxford, 1916), a marvellous multum in parvo, and the excellent Manual Greek Lexicon of the New Testament by Professor G. Abbott-Smith (Edinburgh, In the later Parts of the Vocabulary frequent 1922) have been of the utmost value. made to W. Bauer's revised and enlarged edition of E. reference has also been Preuschen's Griechisch-Deutsclics Worterbuch zu den Schriften des Neuen Testaments (Giessen, 1928), and to F.

interest than the countless

in recent years have awakened more widespread documents recovered from the sands of Egypt, and papyrus

it is from them that our principal non-literary illustrations of the Vocabulary of the Greek Testament have been drawn, it may be well to describe briefly by way of Introduction what these papyri are, and what is the nature of their value for the New

Testament student.Papyrus as Writing Material.

itself, the word papyrus is the name of a reed-plant L.) which at one time grew in great profusion in the river Nile, and (Cyperus papyrus, " gave its name to the writing material or paper" of antiquity formed from it. The pith was cut into long thin strips, which were laid (ftvftXos) of the stem of the papyrus plant

down on a flat table and soaked with Nile water. A second layer was then placed crosswise on the top of the first, and the two layers were pressed together to form a single web or sheet. After being dried in the sun, and scraped with a shell or bone to remove 1 any roughness, a material not unlike our own brown paper was produced. The size of the papyrus sheets varied considerably, but for non-literary documents awas from nine to eleven inches in height, and from five to five and a half When more space than that afforded by a single sheet was required, inches in breadth. a number of sheets were joined together to form a roll, which could easily be extended or shortened as desired. Thus, to take the case of the New Testament autographs, which were almost certainly written on separate papyrus rolls, a short Epistle, like the Second with the Epistle to the Thessalonians, would be a roll of about fifteen inches in length in some five columns, while St. Paul's longest Epistle, the Epistle to contents arranged The shortest of the Gospels, the Romans, would run to about eleven feet and a half. would occupy about nineteen feet the longest, St. Luke's, about thirty-one St. Mark's,

common

size

;

And the Apocalypse of St. John has been estimated at fifteen feet. or thirty-two feet. Taking the other books on the same scale, Sir F. G. Kenyon, to whom the foregoing figures are also due, has calculated that if the whole New Testament was written out inroll, the roll would extend to more than two hundred feet in length, an utterly unworkable size. 2 This alone makes it clear that not until the obviously papyrus stage in their history was past, and use was made of both sides of parchment or vellum leaves, was it possible to include all the books of the New Testament in a single volume. The side of the papyrus on which the fibres ran horizontally, or the recto, as it came to be technically known, was from its greater smoothness, generally preferred for the case writing, while the back, or the verso, was reserved for the address, at any rate in But when space failed, the verso could also be utilized, as shown in a long of letters.

XV11It is, however, by imparting a fresh life and reality to many of our most ordinary New Testament terms that the new authorities render their most signal service. We know how our very familiarity with Scriptural language is apt to blind us to its full significance. But when we find words and phrases, which we have hitherto associated only with a religious meaning, in common, everyday use, and employed in circumstances where their meaning can raise no question, we make a fresh start with them, and get a clearer insight

into their deeper application. " " " " Take, for instance, the common designation of Christians as brethren or brothers

no doubt was taken over from Judaism (Ac 2 ss,3r al.) and from the example of our Lord Himself (cf. Alt 12 48 23 s ); but we can at least see how the adoption of such a term was rendered easier by its application to the members of a funeral societv, whose duty it was to take part in the embalming of dead bodies, or again to the(d&e\(f>oi) .

Without entering on the question of the presbyter's place and authority in the early Christian Church, it is obvious that the use of the word in civil life to denote a local or village officer must have prepared the way in

Thus in the year B.C. 117 a Gentile circles for its acceptance in its new connotation. tax-farmer petitions the village-scribe and "the elders of the cultivators," that he may be assured of official "protection." 2 Or, again, in a.d. 114 a woman lodges a complaint ofassaultfor the peace

Other more general uses of the word occur in connexion with the maintenance of the banks of the Nile, or with the release of persons from some public service "because it is not at present their turn to serve (Sta to /i?; iicirerr[eT\v abroh to vvv XeiTovpyijaai).'"
