Notes (1)

  1. The headword is the present active participle, masculine nominative plural, of the epic/poetic verb ti/w, I honor (as toward the gods); cf. tau 649, tau 669, and see generally LSJ s.v. It is presumably extracted from somewhere, very probably -- see next note -- from one of the instances (C4 CE) in the poetry of Gregory of Nazianzus: Poems about himself (Carmina de se ipso) PG 37.1365; Poems which relate to others (Carmina quae spectant ad alios) PG 37.1491 and PG 37.1539. (Another in Quintus of Smyrna, Posthomerica 4.96.)
  2. 1The gloss is the same form as the lemma, but from the contract verb tima/w, I honor; see generally LSJ s.v. The headword is identically glossed in the Synagoge (tau186), Photius' Lexicon (tau316 Theodoridis), and -- missed by Theodoridis -- the Lexicon in orationes Gregorii Nazianzeni (tau66). By way of comparison Adler cites a scholion (= D scholia) to Homer, Iliad 8.161 (web address 1), where third person plural imperfect ti/on is glossed with e)ti/mwn. ↩
