Notes (3)
- 1Likewise or similarly in other lexica; references at Photius sigma139 Theodoridis. The gloss is genitive plural, so presumably the headword -- quoted from somewhere -- is too (from an unattested nominative
selmo/s ; the normal word is neuterse/lma ). For the glossing word see sigma 92. ↩ - 2Mount Selmon or Zalmon (Judges 9:48, etc.). ↩
- 3This addition, also in Hesychius, relates to Psalm 67.15 LXX ("the kings shall be made snow-white in Selmon"). ↩
