Translation
['Boundaries of nations'] and 'boundaries of fathers'.
Greek original · Adler’s text
Ὅρια ἐθνῶν καὶ ὅρια πατέρων.
Betacode
*(/oria e)qnw=n kai\ o(/ria pate/rwn.
Notes
- Perhaps from Symeon Metaphrastes, opined Adler, who also noted that Jonathan Toup (1713-1785) suggested
*persw=n ("of Persians") for the transmittedpate/rwn . Any necessity for emendation, however, is arguable, given the fact that both of these phrases are well-attested separately and need not be supposed to be presented here as a single one. "Boundaries of nations", in particular, comes from Deuteronomy 32.8.
Foro(/rion , see generally omicron 564.
