καταδουλόω [page 326] An interesting instance of this verb ( Gal_2:4 , 2Co_11:20 ) occurs in an invocation of iv/v A.D., where the invoker summons the Gnostic deity βαινχωωωχ to subdue all the race of men before him P Lond 123 .4 (= I. p. 120) καθυπόταξον φίμωσον καταδούλωσον πᾶν γένος ἀνθρώπων , cf. .9 καταδούλωσον φίμωσον τὴν ψυχὴν τὸν θυμόν etc. See also Menander Fragm. p. 98 παιδισκάριόν με καταδεδούλωκ᾽ εὐτελές , | ὃν οὐδεὶς τῶν πολεμίων <οὐ >πώποτε , a silly little wench has hopelessly entangled me me, whom no enemy has yet enslaved. The mid. καταδουλούμενον is similarly used of an hetaera in P Eleph 3 .3 , 4 .4 (B.C. 284 3). According to the law of Antiochus, OGIS 383 .162 (mid. i/B.C.), no one is allowed μήτε αὑτῶι καταδουλώσασθαι μήτε εἰς ἕτερον ἀπαλλοτριῶσαι certain ἱεροδούλους and their descendants. The form καταδουλίζω occurs in Syll 836 .4 (1st half of iii/B.C.), and in ib. 841 .6 (Roman) in a deed of enfranchisement with reference to certain slaves μὴ καταδουλιξάσθω δὲ αὐτοὺς μηθεὶς μηδὲ καθ᾽ ὁποῖον τρόπον . See also LAE .2 p. 329 f., and for the subst. Michel 1417 A .8 (Delphi i/A.D.) ἐπὶ καταδουλισμῶι , with a view to making [him] a slave.
