ἀλλότριος / ἀλλοτριόω [page 23] ἀλλότριος P Oxy VII. 1067 .6 ff. (a very ungrammatical letter of iii/A.D.), μάθε οὖν ὅτι ἀλλοτρίαν γυναῖκαν ( l. ἀλλοτρία γυνή ) ἐκληρονόμησεν αὐτόν , know then that a strange woman is made his heir (Ed.). The adjective is common in the sense of alienus , belonging to others : one or two special applications may be cited. A rescript of Gordian (P Tebt II. 285 .5 ), which Wilcken marks as suffering from translation out of Latin, uses τοὺς ἀλλοτρίους for outsiders, as against legitimate children. P Giss I. 67 .19 (ii/A.D.) τὸ γὰρ ἀλλ̣[ότ ]ρ̣ιο̣ν ἐποίησα ξυ [ . . . seems to imply I did what was foreign to me, but the lost context may change this entirely. Ib. 99 .6 (ii/iii A.D.) κατὰ τὸ τῶν αὐτο [χθόνω ]ν Αἰγυπτίων ἀλλότρια̣ ταῦ [τα ἦν ], ἐδρᾶτο δὲ ὅμως . P Tor I. 1 viii. 3 (Ptol. Euergetes) προέφερετο ἀλλότριον εἶναι τὸ παρεισαγόμενον ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ . P Oxy II 282 .9 (A.D. 30 5) ἡ δὲ ἀλλότρια φρονήσασα τῆς κοινῆς συμβιώ [σεως ], became dissatisfied with our union (Edd.) : so P Ryl II. 128 .10 ( c. A.D. 30) ἀλλότρια φρονήσασα changed her mind, of a mill-hand leaving her work. BGU II 405 .13 (A.D. 348), ξένον με εἶναι καὶ ἀλλότριον αὐτῆς , gives the genitive dependent on it, and ib. IV. 1121 .22 (B.C. 5) μήτε ἴδια μήτ᾽ ἀλλότρια has the antithesis which characterizes best its meaning. ἀλλοτριόω P Tebt I. 105 .38 (B.C. 103) καὶ μὴ ἐξέστω αὐτ [ῶι ] ἀ̣λ̣λ̣οτρ̣[ιοῦν . . . ] τὴν μίσθωσιν . BGU IV. 1024 iv. 10 (iv/v A.D.) σὺ δὲ ἐπεβούλευσας σῶμα ( l. σώματι ) ἀλλοτρ [ι ]ωθέντι ὑπὸ τοῦ [γ ]ένους τῶν ἀνθρώπων . This last has the sense which in NT is expressed more strongly by the perfective compound ἀπαλλοτριοῦν .
