Translation

[Meaning a sacrificial] offering,¹ present, or friendship-gift.
Also [sc. attested is] a)fai/resis, a word used by Hyperides in the specialized sense of the [sc. removal of a slave] to freedom.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἀφαίρεμα· ἀνάθημα, δῶρον, ἢ ξένιον. καὶ Ἀφαίρεσις Ὑπερίδης ἰδίως τὴν εἰς ἐλευθερίαν λέγει.

Notes (1)

[1] "[T]hat which is taken away as the choice part": LSJ s.v. (web address 1), citing the Old Testament and Josephus. LSJ give a)fai/rhma as from Hesychius, but Latte reads a)fai/rema, as here and in the sources and other lexica.
2Hyperides fr. 23 Jensen, cited from Harpokration s.v.
