Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
Λύστρα [page 382]
The laxity in the declension of this place-name ( Act_14:6 Λύστραν , . Act_14:8 Λύστροις : cf. Act_16:1 f. ) can be readily paralleled from the papyri, cf. e.g. P Grenf II. 46 .4 (A.D. 137) ἐν Κερκεσούχῃ and .9 ἀπὸ Κερκεσούχων , and the fem. Τεντύρη in ib. 74 .3, .6 (A.D. 302) instead of the more usual neut. plur. Τέντυρα : see further Moulton Proleg. p. 48, Gr. ii. § 60(10), and for similar heteroclisis in the LXX, Thackeray Gr . i. p. 167 f.
