Notes

Same (e.g. Photius, Lexicon epsilon2341) or similar (Hesychius epsilon7213 s.v. eu)stibe/s) entry in other lexica.
The headword (already under alpha 4240) is an adjective; the gloss (again under lambda 603) a perfect middle/passive participle in the feminine nominative singular. Theodoridis on Photius s.v. plausibly suggests that the (very rare) headword is quoted from Cyril of Alexandria's commentary on Isaiah 5.3 LXX (PG 70.1273a).
