Notes:
[1] The headword (neuter plural) has the same or similar glossing in other lexica. It is presumably quoted from somewhere, perhaps the Septuagint (Exodus 29.2, Leviticus 2.4 & 7.12, Numbers 6.15).
[2] cf. generally Etym. Magn. 554.11-13.
[3] An approximation of
Aristophanes,
Wasps 674. See again at
lambda 14; also
eta 589,
tau 886.
[4] Source unidentifiable, but cf. 2 Reg. 6:19 LXX.
