I looked in Cunliffe as well and he sites quite a few examples (a lot
more examples than Edgar Foster seems to imply in his message.)
I checked out the first few examples and they quite clearly mean -come
back-. When I came to 10:444 I couldn't see the need to understand
ELQHTON as anything more than -go-. (When I continued reading the
B-Greek posts I noticed that Elizabeth Kline had put a question mark
behind 444 in her message.

The NT examples that Danker gives are John 4:27 and Rom 9:9.
I think -coming back- fits the context in these two verses quite well.
