Notes (1)
- The headword is the aorist indicative passive, third person singular, of the compound verb
sumya/w , I rake/sweep together; see generally LSJ s.v. (also sigma 1414 and sigma 1415). It is first attested in, and (as Adler notes) quoted here from, a figurative passage in Jeremiah 31.33 LXX:suneyh/sqh xarmosu/nh kai\ eu)frosu/nh e)k th=s *mwabi/tidos (joyfulness, and merriment, was jointly swept away out of the land of Moab. The Kingdom of Moab (capital Dibon; Barrington Atlas map 71 grid B3; present-day Dhiban, Jordan), occupied much of the southern and eastern shore of the Dead Sea; cf. mu 1313. - 1The gloss is the same form as the headword, but compounded from the verb
leptu/nw (aorist passivee)leptu/nqhn ), I attenuate, make thin, meager, reduce; see generally LSJ s.v. The headword is identically glossed in Hesychius (sigma2579), the Synagoge (sigma353), and Photius' Lexicon (sigma778 Theodoridis). ↩
