Notes:
[1] Same or similar glossing in other lexica; references at Photius epsilon54 Theodoridis, where the editor notes Gaisford's opinion that the headword comes from the New Testament (1 Corinthians 9.12, accusative case). The glossing, in any event, illustrates LSJ's sense II of the headword, rather than the one in the quotation which follows here.
[2] Quotation (again at kappa 1776) unidentifiable. See also epsilon 112.
Keywords: Christianity; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; ethics; geography; religion
