Headword: *)/egkoton
Adler number: epsilon,118
Translated headword: spite, spiteful
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] hostile, innate.[1] Also [sc. attested is the related adverb] 'spitefully', [meaning] angrily.[2]
"What envy, which is always spiteful towards good people, holds the sons of Theseus?"[3]
So long-lasting anger [is] spite [or: spiteful].[4]
Greek Original:
*)/egkoton: e)xqro/n, e)ndia/qeton. kai\ *)egko/tws, o)rgi/lws. ti/s fqo/nos ai)e\n *qhsei/das a)gaqw=n e)/gkotos ai)e\n e)/xei; *)/egkotos ou)=n h( e)pi/monos o)rgh/.
Notes:
[1] Likewise in Photius, Lexicon epsilon57 Theodoridis. Apparently, as Adler notes, from Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon, where however the gloss is a single phrase: e)xqra\n e)ndia/qeton "innate hostility". (The headword is used as a substantive as well as an adjective: see LSJ s.v.) Given the adverb -- on which see next note -- it may be that this primary headword too is extracted from Philo Judaeus (Legatio in Gaium 260), though Theodoridis opts for Herodotus 3.59.4.
[2] Likewise in Hesychius (epsilon253) and elsewhere. Latte claims it as quoted from Philo Judaeus, In Flaccum 19. There are also three other instances in that author (and virtually none elsewhere).
[3] Greek Anthology 7.40.3-4 (Diodorus), where the first ai)e/n is ai)ai=; again at theta 366.
[4] Addendum lacking, Adler reports, in four of the mss, and a marginal addition in two others.
