Notes
- = Lexica Segueriana 216.7 Bachmann; cf. generally Hesychius epsilon2049 (on the participle
e)lhlako/tes ).
The Etymologicum Magnum (325.34, 330.44) identifies this as an Attic perfect form from the verbe)lau/nw , but while compounds of the verb in this form occur in Xenophon, non-compounded forms like the one we have here are confined to Late Koine in the preserved literature. (For an instance in Procopius see under theta 141.)
