[Meaning] that [sc. earth] which produces the [necessities] for living.
*fusi/zw|os: h( ta\ pro\s to\ zh=n fu/ousa.
This adjective is a variant spelling of the epic adjective
fusi/zoos, which probably had the original meaning "producing
ze/a (grain)" but was reinterpreted as if from
zwh/ "life." Likewise or similarly glossed in other lexica, and cf. also a scholion on
Homer,
Iliad 3.243, where
fusi/zoos ai)=a occurs (web address 1).
