Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
γεμίζω [page 122]
The verb is used of loading a ship with grain in P Magd 11 .14 (B.C. 221) συντάξαι Εὐφράνορι . . . γεμίσαι τὸ πλοῖον ἐκ (cf. Rev_8:5 ) τῶν καθ᾽ αὑτὸν τόπων τὴν ταχίστην . In l. 11 of the same papyrus we have the pass. γεμίζηται used absolutely, and similarly on the verso πε [ρὶ τ ]ο̣ῦ [γεμι ]σθῆναι αὐτοῦ τ [ὸ πλο ]ῖ [ο ]ν : cf. Mar_4:37 , Luk_14:23 . Other examples of the verb are P Fay 117 .14 (A.D. 108) πάντα τὰ κτήνη γέμιζ̣ι̣ ( l. γέμιζε ) βάκανο̣ν , load all the animals with cabbage, ib. 118 .23 (A.D. 110), P Tebt II. 419 .17 (iii/A.D.) γέμεισον χόρτου , load (the ass) with hay, P Flor II. 184 .15 (iii/A.D.) γεμίσας τὰ ἐκκενωθέντα τότε σιτάρια , and .17 τοὺς τέσσαρες σάκκους γεμίσαι , P Rein 53 .4 (iii/iv A.D.) τὰ ἀποσταλέντα καμήλια γέμωσον (see below) οἴνου . For the constr. with acc. and gen., as in this last instance and others (cf. Mar_15:36 etc.), see also OGIS 383 .146 (i/B.C.) τρ ]απέζας μὲν ἱερὰς πρεπούσης θοίνης γεμί [ζ ]ων . In MGr γεμίζω is construed with double accusative. The curious form γέμωσον (P Rein 53 l. c. ) is explained by P Flor II. 184 .18 (iii/A.D.) γόμωσον , and other passages where this alternative γομόω occurs : γέμωσον is a compromise. Note the negatived verbal in P Sa῾ι d Khan 1 b. .34 (B.C. 88) στέμφ [υ ]λα ἀγέμιστ̣[α .
