Greek display:    
Headword: *(iero/n ti newkorh/sas
Adler number: iota,187
Translated headword: having cleaned out some shrine
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
Meaning having rather euphemistically served as priest
Greek Original:
*(iero/n ti newkorh/sas: a)nti\ tou= eu)fhmo/teron i(erateu/sas.
Note:
The headword phrase is quoted from Plato, Republic 574D -- where, contrary to what this gloss (first in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon) supposes, 'clean out' is ironic: plunder, strip. (See web address 1.) Theodoridis on Photius s.v. obelizes the entire gloss, and endorses Kuster's view that it should be eu)fhmo/teron a)nti\ tou= i(erosulh/sas.
