[1] Likewise in other lexica. This reflects senses II.1 & 2 in LSJ s.v.: the former, attested primarily in
Aristotle's
Politics, can in context mean
canvassing for public office (LSJ); the latter is characteristic of the use of the word in the
New Testament.
[2] cf.
epsilon 2984 (and
mu 1119). This is LSJ's sense I.
