  1. For the several senses of this headword noun, u(po/sthma, see LSJ s.v.; the one in question here is no.III there.
  2. 1Likewise in Photius and other lexica (all in reference to the appearance of the headword noun in 2 Kingdoms 23.14 LXX). ↩
  3. 2Quotation unidentifiable (and precise sense of the headword noun unclear). ↩
