Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἐξάγω. For this verb in connexion with leading out from prison, as in Ac 16°*, cf. P Tebt I. 1513 (B.c. 114) ἔφησαν. .. τὸν piv ᾿Απολλόδωρον ἐξηγμένον, τοῦ δὲ Μάρωνος ἐν ἑρκτεῖ (/. εἱρκτῆι) γεγονότων (/.—os), “ they informed us that Apollodorus had escaped, but Maron had been put in prison,” so ib. ὡς ἦν enypévos: the pf. part. act. ἐξαγηγοχότα (for form, see s.v. ἄγω) is found in P Hib I. 341° (B.c. 243-2). The meaning “ conduct,” ‘‘carry out” to the end appears in Michel 4098 (beg. iii/B.c.) τὰ ἐπιτραπέντα αὐτοῖ]ς ἐξα[γ]Ἱαγόντας pe[xpl τέλους. The verb is very common in custom-house receipts = ‘‘ export,” e.g. P Ryl II. 197? (late ii/A.D.) Σαραπίων ἐξάγ(ων) ἐπὶ καμήλ(ῳ) ἃ μιᾷ λαχανοσπέρp(ov) ἀρτάβ(ας) ἕξ, ““ 5. exporting on one camel six artabae of vegetable-seed”: cf. PSI IV. 40615 (iii/B.c.) ἄλλην {(παιδίσκην) ἐξήγοσαν ἐξ ᾿Αμμώνων, and the use of the subst. in P Lille I. 29! (iii/B.c.) μηθενὶ ἐξέστω σώματα πωλεῖν [ἐπ᾽] ἐξαγωγῆι, ‘that no one be permitted to sell slaves for exportation,” P Oxy XII. 1440% (A.D. 120) receipt for tax on articles exported—éfakox‘js (/. ἐξαγωγῆς). It may be noted that ᾿Εξαγωγή was used by Philo as the title for the second book of the Law, instead of "Efo80s : see Nestle in Hastings’ DB iv. p. 442. In the Rainer Gospel Fragment, which contains a narrative somewhat similar to Mk 142689, Bickell’s later reading is—pera δὲ τὸ φαγεῖν, ds ἐξ ἔθους, instead of ὡς ἐξῆγον : see Mittheilungen aus der Sammlung der Papyrus Ersherzog Rainer i. p. 53 ff., il. p. 411.
