I would add to this:
Acts 24:17 DI' ETWN DE PLEIONWN
Acts 27:5 DI' hHMERWON DEKAPENTE (v.l. 614, 2147 pc. (h) sy(h))
And also look at the Vulgate's rendering of
Matt. 26:61 DIA TRIWN hHMERWN ==> POST TRIDUUM
Perhaps POST in the Latin Vulgate is flexible enough to not cause a problem
here but my quick look at Gildersleve & Lodge (a classical grammar not
Vulgate) seemed to indicate otherwise. The parallels to Matt. 26:61 in John
2:19 etc. seem to point in the other direction from the Vulgate, so there is
probably little question what is actually intended by DIA TRIWN hHMERWN in
Matt. 26:61. However, the Vulgate rendering does raise a question about how
this would have been understood by an early reader/translator.
I don't know Latin well enough to make a call on this one and I have no
Grammar for Vulgate Latin anyway so I will leave this question for someone
else.
