[Meaning] he who/that which is unseen/invisible.
*)aeidh/s: o( a)fanh/s.
Same entry, according to Adler, in the
Ambrosian Lexicon.
Properly speaking,
a)eidh/s should mean "formless" (from the noun
eidos; see already
alpha 614) and
a)idh/s should mean "unseen, invisible" (from the verbal root
id- "see"). But the two are sometimes confused: they are, for instance, variant readings in
Plato,
Phaedo 79A (web address 1).
