ἤρεμος [page 281] The Pauline phrase in 1Ti_2:2 finds a striking parallel in OG1S 519 .10 ( c. A.D. 245) ἤρεμον καὶ γαληνὸν τὸν βίον δια [γόντων . Lest Paul should be credited with a literary word we may cite the use of the verb in BGU IV. 1019 .2 (mid. ii/A.D.) σω ]ϕ̣ρο̣σ̣υ̣ν̣ῃ [ἱ ]κ [α ]νὸν χρόν̣ο̣[ν ] ᾐρ̣εμη̣σ̣α̣ς̤ μετῆλθεν .
