Can anybody help me with the current opinion on the dating of both texts,
Pseudo-Phocylides and the Sybilline oracles. I am aware that the dating of
the latter one (or parts of it) is debated. But anyway: What can be said
about the date of these two occurences of the word theopneustos? And what
about the other "obscure inscriptions".

If you think this is off topic for B-Greek, feel free to answer off list.
Thank you
