Notes:
The SOL headword, mistakenly, is the entry's secondary one.
[1] From Synagoge epsilon205, quoting Timaeus, Platonic Lexicon 984a (which glosses Plato, Axiochus 368D: accusative plural there), perhaps through Cyril's Glossarium or through Hesychius epsilon179 (same entry, probably a Cyrillian interpolation).
[2] Aristophanes, Acharnians 343, with comment from the scholia there; see also the scholia to Aristophanes, Thesmophiazusae 600.
[3] A reference to Psalm 9.29 LXX, quoted in epsilon 67, and one of many commentaries on it, perhaps Theodoret, Interpretatio in Psalmos 80.933 on Psalm 9.20, or Hesychius Ecclesiasticus, Commentarius brevis 9.29: e)gka/qhtai: "rich people live all the time with dissimulation in their impiety: indeed they lie in ambush [e)nedreu/ousi] for innocents and even more, the rich people lie in ambush [e)nedreu/ousi] for poor people".
