Notes:
The headword -- present participle of
u(pera/gw, masculine accusative singular -- is presumably extracted from the quotation given.
[1] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable; de Boor suggested
Theodorus Lector or John of
Antioch (but not accepted as Johnian by U.Roberto). The overseer might be a bishop, depending on context.
