I can't think of any occurrences of EN + name. The only thing I can think of
in the biblical literature that may come close is the statement in 1 Co 10.2
where Paul says PANTES EIS TON MWUSHN EBAPTISQHSAN ("all were baptized into
Moses"). Does this constitute them as somehow EN MWUSEI? (cf. Ro 6.3; Ga
3.27)
