Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
μέτωπον [page 407]
With Rev_13:16 , where the allusion is to the habit of marking soldiers and slaves with a distinctive brand (see Moffatt ad l. in EGT ), we may compare P Lille I. 29 ii. 36 (iii/B.C.) ὁ δὲ παραλ [αβὼν τὸ ἀνδρά ]ποδον μαστιγωσ [άτω μὴ ἔ ]λασσον ἑκατὸν π [ληγῶν καὶ ] στίξατο τὸ μέτω [πον with reference to the punishment of a runaway slave. The word is naturally common in those personal descriptions with which the papyri have made us so familiar, e.g. BGU III. 975 .9 (A.D. 45) (= Selections , p. 42) οὐλ ]ὴ μετόπο ἀριστερο ( l. μετώπῳ ἀριστερῷ ), a scar on the left forehead, P Oxy I. 72 .46 (A.D. 90) οὐ (λὴ ) μετώπ (ῳ ) μέσῳ , and P Fay 91 .10 (A.D. 99) οὐλὴ μετόπωι ἐγ δεξιῶν . MGr μέτωπο .
