Notes (2)
- 1= Synagoge; Photius, Lexicon pi660 Theodoridis. The headword is the Attic dialect version of the present middle infinitive of
peridra/ssomai . Theodoridis regards it as quoted from either Cyril of Alexandria (Commentary on John 3.4: PG 73.449d) or Gregory of Nazianzus (Poems 1.2.2.253: PG 37.598a). ↩ - 2This seems to be an otherwise unattested present indicative active, first person singular, of
peridra/ssomai . (No other active forms of this verb are attested.) The middle voice too can take the genitive: see LSJ s.v. ↩
