[Meaning he] having told [someone] to go hang, having condemned [someone].
*)errw=sqai fra/sas: oi)mw/zein ei)pw/n, kategnwkw/s.
Same or similar glossing, variously, in other lexica. For the phrase
fra/zein e)rrw=sqai, which (at least in classical Greek) has a more positive tone than the glosses here suggest (and cf. under
chi 162), see e.g.
Plato,
Phaedo 61B (web address 1) and especially
Demosthenes 18.152 and 19.248 (web address 2, web address 3). The two latter passages have the aorist participle, as here, and Demosthenic
scholia suggest that 19.248 is the one that has generated the present entry; cf. Theodoridis on
Photius s.v.
It seems likely that the lexicographical tradition (and maybe also the later Greek literary tradition) has confused forms of the verb
r(w/nnumi "be strong, be healthy" with forms of the verb
e)/rrw "go hang, go to hell."
