Notes (1)

[1] The headword (presumably extracted from the quotation given) is present middle participle of e)pigra/fw, masculine dative singular.
2Quotation not identified by Adler but identifiable via the TLG as Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews 3.74 (web address 1). See on this Theodoridis' Photius edition, vol.II p.LXXXIV.
