Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
μοσχοποιέω. This compound verb, which in Ac 7541 takes the place of ἐποίησε μόσχον in Ex 324, is claimed by Blass (ad Ac Z.c.) as an example of the faculty which the Greek language never lost of forming new words. No other instance of it occurs in the LXX or in profane writers, but it follows the model of the Platonic εἰδωλοποιέω (ef. 605 C); cf. (Plut. A/ex. 1), ἀγαλματοποιέω, εἰκονοποιέω.
