Notes
- Same entry, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon (30).
Accented as it is (oxytone), presumably nominative. The book of the prophet Obadiah in the Septuagint has the title*a*b*d*i*o*u and*(/orasis *)abdiou "Obadiah's Vision"; the Hebrew name is indeclinable and accentless. Hesychius gives the name as oxytone, with the glosse(rmhneu/etai dou=los e)comologhto/s "it is interpreted as acknowledged servant."
