*)efau/lizon
Adler number: epsilon,3845

Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning] they were belittling.[1]
"They were disparaging him, as being in no way excellent; for he was small of body."[2]

Notes:
[1] Likewise in other lexica, beginning with
Hesychius. The headword is imperfect of the verb
fauli/zw (cf.
phi 139), either first person singular or third person plural; the latter if extracted from the quotation given here (though earlier lexica do not have it), or if the catalyst for these entries is the instance in
Josephus,
Jewish War 5.443.
[2] Quotation (and individual) unknown.
