Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

βροντή [page 118] Of this common Greek word we can quote no instance from the papyri : derivatives like βρονταγωγός and βροντοκεραυνοπάτωρ are cited by van Herwerden from the great Paris magic papyrus, as well as the two derived verbs. Βροντάω occurs in the magic papyri P Lond 46 .151 (iv/A.D.) (= I. p. 70) ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ἀστράπτω (ν ) καί βροντῶν , and 121 .366 (iii/A.D.) (= I. p. 96) ὁ αἰὼν ὁ βροντῶν , and βροντάζω in the last-mentioned papyrus l. 235 (= I. p. 92), and in 122 .93 (iv/A.D.) (= I. p. 119). In Phrygian inscrr. βροντῶν θεός is a standing title of the sky-god : cf. Iuppiter Tonans at Rome. Βροντῶ is still to thunder in MGr. Vettuis Valens has βροντοποιός and βροντώδης .
