Adler number: delta,513
Translated headword: having overcome by force
Vetting Status: high

Notes:
The headword is presumably extracted from the quotation given (though it also occurs in
Josephus,
Jewish Antiquities 19.173).
[1] This glossing participle (which occurs only here and in the parallel entry in ps.-
Zonaras) is aorist passive and thus an odd match with the aorist middle headword.
