ει297Εἰς ὀρθὸν ἐπιδοῦναιto face the frontAlthough the aorist infinitive in the headword phrase itself is e)pidou=nai, it should more properly be a)podou=nai (as in the body of the entry itself, and cf. Asclepiodotus 10.1). [1] Literally, to bend towards …Matched in noteshighshort

α2385Ἀνεῖργενhindered… lexica. [2] Same glossing in Photius and elsewhere. The headword itself must be quoted from somewhere. (There are possibilities in Josephus and elsewhere.) [3] Cassius Dio 71.11.Matched in noteshighshort
κ2069ΚορβανᾶςKorbanas… written Korbonas. [2] A careless transcription -- omitting the headword itself -- of Josephus, Jewish War 2.175-7 (web address 1). For this episode cf. pi 1595.Matched in noteshighshort

ε2903Ἐργαστήριονworkshop… invoked comes from Xenophon, Agesilaus 1.26 (web address 1 -- itself an echo of Hellenica 3.4.17), and it became quasi-proverbial; besides Polybius, witness Athenaeus, Deipnosophists 10.421B [10.18 Kaibel].Matched in noteshighshort
ε4050Ἐχύρωμαsecurity, security-barrier… glossing term is an abstract feminine noun, but the headword itself implies something more concrete (both in general and in the quotation given). [2] Theophylact Simocatta, Histories 2.18.15; see more fully at sigma 100 …Matched in noteshighshort
κ32Καθάπαξonce and for all… where Theodoridis cautiously endorses Naber's view that the headword adverb itself is extracted from Homer, Odyssey 21.349. [2] Quotation not identified by Adler, but identifiable via the TLG as Josephus, Jewish War 4.237 (web …Matched in noteshighshort

ε1138Ἐναυλήματαbarley-soaksSame entry in other lexica, but the (neuter plural) headword itself, e)naulh/mata, is problematic.

ε1940Ἐπαλλάξαντεςpassing over… in Photius, but the gloss is an error. The headword itself -- aorist active participle, masculine nominative plural, of e)palla/ssw -- occurs in Homer, Iliad 13.359 (web address 1) where, in an image about …Matched in noteshighshort
α2235Ἀν' ἑκάστηνon each, on every… alpha 1596 and the note there. As to the quotation itself, Adler cites it as Polybius 36.8.1, but that passage is significantly different. Unidentifiable, rather.Matched in noteshighshort
