Notes

  1. Same or similar glossing in other lexica (references at Photius pi712 Theodoridis), and see also a scholion (9.1 Rabe) on Lucian, Hippias 4. Theodoridis suggests that the entry is generated by the use of the headword in Cyril of Alexandria, Commentary on John 5.2 (PG 73.792b).
    cf. the related verb at pi 1208.
