θυρίς [page 295] In P Petr III. 48 .18 , we hear of θυρίδας κοιλοστάθμους , where for the last word the editors refer to LXX Hag_1:4 , and for the corresponding verb to 3Ki. 6:9, and understand the meaning to be to put a sheath of wood over the door-posts or the sides of the windows. BGU IV. 1116 .23 (B.C. 13) describes a house θύραις καὶ θυρίσι καὶ κλεισί : see ib. .15 for the verbs τὴν οἰκίαν τεθυρωμένην καὶ τεθυριδωμένην καὶ κ̣ε̣κ̣λ̣ε̣ι̣σ̣μ̣ε̣ν̣ην . [Θυριδόω is not in LS .8 , but cf. θυριδωτός .] Cf. also P Ryl II. 233 .5 (ii/A.D.) τὰ μέλαθρα τῶν θυρίδων τοῦ μεγάλου συμποσίου , the beams of the windows in the great dining-hall (Edd.), and P Oxy I. 69 .7 (A.D. 190) where stolen barley is removed from a house διὰ τῆς αὐτῆς θυρίδος , by the said door, according to the editors, but any opening may be intended. In P Lond 35 .5 (B.C. 161) (= I. p. 25) τὴν παρὰ [τοῦ βα ]σίλεως διὰ τῆς θυρίδος ἐ [σφρα ]γισμένην , the reference, as Kenyon notes, is to the opening of a folded papyrus sheet, which would be sealed up to hold it all together and to hide the contents. An interesting inscr. in C. and B . ii. p. 650 tells of the honour paid by the Synagogue to certain Jews who ἐποίησαν τὴν τῶν θυρίδων ἀσφάλειαν καὶ τὸν λυπὸν πάντα κόσμον . MGr παραθύρι , window.
