ἐκδίδωμι [page 192] With ἐκδίδομαι = let out for my advantage may be compared the sense of apprentice found in the papyri, e.g. P Oxy II. 275 .6 (A.D. 66) (= Selections , p. 55) ὁ μὲν Τρύφων ἐγδεδόσθαι τῷ Πτολεμαίῳ τὸν ἑαυτοῦ υἱὸν Θοῶνιν , T. (agrees) that he has apprenticed to P. his son Th., P Tebt II. 385 .3 (A.D. 117) ἐξέδοτο Τεφερσάεις . . . τὸν ἑαυτῆς υἱον Κρονίωνα , T. has apprenticed her son C. Similarly the fragment of a marriage-contract, dated A.D. 74 5, P Oxy II. 372, begins ἐξέδοτο Ταοννῶφρις (the mother of the bride) : so P Giss I. 2 i. 8 (B.C. 173), BGU IV. 1100 .5 (time of Augustus), P Oxy X. 1273 .1 (A.D. 260), and often. Cf. P Oxy II. 237 vii. 28 (A.D. 186) τῆς παιδὸς τῆς ἐκδεδομένης , a daughter given in marriage. For the form ἐξέδετο , as in Mar_12:1 and parallels (cf. Exo_2:21 A), see PSI IV. 288 .8 (ii/A.D.) ἀποχὴν ἡμ [ε ]ῖν ἐξέδετο . The general sense issue, give out, appears in P Petr III. 43(2) verso ii. 6 ἐξεδόθη , and P Tebt II. 397 .1 (A.D. 198) ἐξεδό (θησαν ), both of the giving out of certain contracts : so P Ryl II. 163 .16 (A.D. 139) ἡ π ]ρᾶσις κυρία . . . ἣν καὶ ἐξεδό [μην σοι δισσήν (?), this deed of sale is valid, and I have issued it to you in duplicate (Edd.), PSI III. 204 .16 (A.D. 140) διὰ τραπέζης ἐγδώσω̣ of a receipt, P Fay 34 .5 (A.D. 161) ἐκδῶναι σύμβολα , to issue receipts. For the use of the subst. ἔκδοσις in marriage-contracts, see Chrest. II. i. p. 216, and on ἐκδόσιμα = official copies, see the editors note on P Oxy III. 494 .25 . An unexplained term ἀπέγδοσις is found in P Petr II. 13 (4) .2 (B.C. 258 3). The corresponding εἰσδίδωμι , hitherto almost unknown, is now well attested : see LS .9 , Mayser Gr. p. 489, and similarly ib. p. 438 for εἴσδοσις . See ἔκδοτος , infra.
