Book Description
Excerpt from The Legal and Governmental Terms Common to the Macedonian Greek Inscriptions and the New Testament: With a Complete Index of the Macedonian Inscriptions This treatise is intended to present an inductive study of the legal and governmental terms common to the Macedonian inscriptions and the New Testament. The purpose of this investigation is to obtain, from the usage of these words in the inscriptions, any available infor mation which may throw light upon their interpretation in the New Testament. The object is not to make an exhaustive investigation of the meaning and usage of these words in the whole field of Greek literature, nor yet to carry the investigation into the New Testament itself, but rather to furnish to the student of the New Testament some additional data with which to approach his task of interpreting these technical terms in the Scriptures. The method has been to quote in Greek the statement in which the word under consideration occurs; to indicate to what time and place the inscription belonged; to give a translation or a paraphrase of a sufficient portion of the immediate context to enable the reader to understand the shorter passage quoted in Greek; and then to make an inductive study of the terms selected, in every inscription in which they occur.

From the usage of the term Srjuos in the inscriptions certain facts are obtained which have a bearing upon the meaning and usage of this term in the New Testament. It occurs four times in the New Testament (Acts 12:22; 17:5; 19:30, 33). In Acts 12:22 it pertains to the city of Caesarea in Palestine; in 17:5 to Thessalonica in Macedonia; and in 19:30, 33 to Ephesus in Asia Minor. The Macedonian inscriptions show that the cities of Macedonia were generally governed by a body called 6 817/10s. Reference is made in No. 365 to the &/ of Thessalonica. Ephesus not being a Macedonian city is not mentioned here, but there are other inscriptions which make mention of a ftmy and a 87/105 in Ephesus. Not only do the inscriptions show that a political body called the 87/105 existed in Thessalonica and Ephesus, but they also afford some light as to some of the officers mentioned in the New Testament. The politarchs are associated with the high priest in such a way as to suggest that they were colleagues, but that the high priest was in some manner their superior officer. The statement is made (365) that certain things were done for the ffovij and the 87/105 by the politarchs irefl rbv apxupea. Both the politarchs and the high priest were subordinate, or subject to the authority of the 87/105. They were both officers of the city. The accusation against Paul and Silas in Thessalonica was political. They had violated certain civic laws and so were answerable to the city for their conduct. The intention seems to have been to bring them to the 87/105 for judgment, but failing to find Paul and Silas, they arrested Jason, together with some of the brethren, for having given...
