(Entry in mss IM only, Adler reports.)
The headword must be quoted from somewhere. All the extant instances are in Christian writers, referring to the parable of the lost sheep -- 1 out of 100 -- in the Gospels (where the two component parts of the numeral are separate: e)nenh/konta e)nne/a). See Matthew 18.12-13, Luke 15.4-7.
