[Meaning] give orders to.¹

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἐπίτειλον· πρόσταξον.

Betacode

*)epi/teilon: pro/stacon.

Notes (1)

The headword and the gloss are both aorist active, second person singular imperatives. The former is from LSJ's e)pite/llw (A); cf. epsilon 2665.
The entry and others like it probably derive ultimately from commentary/scholia to Homer, Iliad 24.112 (web address 1), where the headword occurs.
1Hesychius epsilon5303 (cf. epsilon5339) includes this gloss among others. See also Etymologicum Magnum 365.43 and the scholia to Homer, Iliad 4.64. Adler also cites the Ambrosian Lexicon (1629).
