90 PRONOMEN ABUNDANS AND PRONOMEN CONIUNCTUM 3.2. Earliest examples ot onov = relat. pronoun Jannaris, Dieterich and Rydén 300 have signalized a series of examples where, they maintain, onov was used instead of arelat. pronoun. They stem from the lst, 5th or 6th, 6th and 7th centuries. Some of them should, I believe, be rejected as such. They will be discussed first. 3.2.1. Rejected examples Clem., Ep. Cor. I 23,3 n6eew yevéa()w àq/ iJftWV i} yeurpiJ ufJ-r'Yj, onov Uyet ... Pernot ob serves 301: "N ous sommes bien près du relatif moderne nov". In the lst century A.D. we are quite close, but not so close as Pernot believes. The words onov Uyet do not mean "who says", but "where it is said", or "where the Sctipture says", or "where God says". Blass Debrunner are clear about thaP02: "Bei den Zitierformeln Uyet usw. schwebt als Subjekt ó ()eóç, i} yeurpiJ od. dgl. vor". See, e.g. Ep. Eph. 4,8
PRONOMEN ABUNDANS AND PRONOMEN CONIUNCTUM 91 Apophth. Patr. 300 D ovtJè yàe elXé nnou 'OV alwvoç .ov.ov VATjV el f-l~ éaep{tJa önov .à OáAAW saXlCl3v, " ... nisi acum unam qua palmas suas scindebat", is Migne's translation. Jannaris, who, according at least to his bibliography, also used the edit ion of Migne, has another version : eiX13U .{nou. In that case it would be much easier to consider önov as a substitute not of a prepositional phrase, but of arelat. pronoun (ij). Jannaris' text-correction (1) must, however, be rejected. Mal. 405,4-5 ... "at 13veéOTjaav ... elç .ov .6nov 'OV éevf-la.oç önov Uye.al .0 BvOáetv. Although Niebuhr translates "qui Bytharium dicitur", I prefer the more conservative attitude of Wolf, who says (p. 48): "An der Stelle des Sundes, wo man's die kleine Tiefe heisst". He mentions the following paralleis, where önov is replaced by the more learned svOa: 77,15-6 "at Wtû06vuç Ot ' AeyovaVial elç .0 f-lav.ûov, svOa Uynal .à IIvOla 013ef-lá . .. and 115,5-7 ... sepvyev ... elç aA;'o f-léeoç -rijç v~aov, .0 l5taepéeov'0 Kv,,;'wm, svOa .à K V"Awma Uyl3ial 0eTj. It is striking to see how close this use of önov and lvOa (= önov) is to wh at is usually denoted by arelat. pronoun. Moseh. 2914 A .. . àV~AVOI3V elç.o oeoç önov av.oç I3lnI3V. Mihevc-Gabrovec (p. 47) views it as a "relatif simpie". It is safer, I believe, to classify it as a dubio us case 305. In spite of the title of this paragraph, which sounds rather negative, it is quite obvious that the above-mentioned examples prove that, if önov was not used as arelat. pronoun yet, the time that it wouid be used as such was very near. The most important reason why we are kept from considering önov as arelat. pronoun is that the antecedents still indicate locations and not persons or objects. 3.2.2. Examples In the following examples we shall see how the development has been completed. The antecedents are persons or (not local) objects, and thus there is no reason to doubt that önov is used as a substitute for the relat. pronoun. Apophth. Patr. 300 B "at Aaf36vuç "at .ov àtJûepov önov elXe neoç av.ov .~v ;'vnTjv, " .. . jratrem qui simultatem adversU8 eum habuerat (Migne)". oldest, Ms A). This, however, can only be true on two conditions: 1. the Ms H and the Syrian translation stem from the Ms A, 2. it must be considered as a lapse of the scribe, as for the rest he writes oç ~ ö. It is obvious that all this is highly improbable. I rather suppose that the translator rendered önov by quae just by accident (the rendering quae being more to his liking than ubi), possibly influenced by scriptura haec: "Longe sit scriptura haec a nobis, quae dixit . ..". A last possibility, of course, is that a later scribe changed ubi into quae. 305 An instance which has to be rejected as such is offered by Gignac, who says regarding P. Gen. 75,14 (lIl-IV A.D.) Tónov bi aVToîç naeáaX€ç nov p.ivwGtv : "I have found one case of an indeclinable (italics by me) nov used in its Modern Greek relative sense" . Here nov is not used as a pronoun, but as an adverb. For more examples of interrogatives which are used in an almost relative sense see Blass- Debrunner, §§ 298,4 and 368.
