Notes (3)

  1. 1= Synagoge, Photius pi680 Theodoridis, with the addition of this syntactical information. The headword is perfect indicative active, third person singular, of perii/sthmi. It must be extracted from somewhere (but not from the quotations given, where one finds, respectively, the aorist active participle and the perfect active participle of the same verb); there are numerous possibilities. ↩
  2. 2Quotation unidentifiable. ↩
  3. 3Quotation unidentifiable. (Not, apparently, from Cyril's Life of St. Sabas.) ↩
