Notes (3)

  1. 1The primary element here is the aorist passive infinitive of filo/w, presumably extracted from the first quotation which follows. See also phi 445. ↩
  2. 2Aelian fr. 185a Domingo-Forasté (182 Hercher). ↩
  3. 3Quotation unidentifiable. (Adler reports that Bernhardy was unhappy with the dative th=| e)kklhsi/a|; a genitive "from the church" might fit better, but without context it is hard to know.) ↩
