Ἡγνικότες

Notes (1)

1. An entry taken from the Lexicon Ambrosianum (Ambrosianus B12 sup. 51 and Laurentianus 59,16 fol.187r).
   The headword is the perfect active participle, masculine nominative plural, of the verb a(gni/zw -- a verb frequently used in the imperial and Byzantine periods and also, sporadically, in classical writers. This perfect participle is quoted from the New Testament: 1 Peter 1.22 (web address 1 below); all other occurrences of it are quotations of this one.
1. 1This gloss is the aorist participle of kaqai/rw. (In Hesychius eta78 it had been kaqari/santes, from kaqari/zw, with an analogous meaning.) ↩
