Notes
- The headword is third person plural, aorist indicative active, of the verb
o)kla/zw ; cf. omicron 110. For its various related meanings see LSJ s.v. (web address 1).
The headword has the same or similar glossing in other lexica and must be quoted from somewhere -- very probably the Septuagint (3 Kingdoms 19.18).
