Headword: *)ela/khse
Adler number: epsilon,735
Translated headword: burst asunder
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning he/she/it] was split in the middle.[1]
But e)la/khse [means he/she/it] crashed, struck together.[2] But e)la/kkise [means he/she/it] dug cisterns/ponds.[3]
Greek Original:
*)ela/khse: me/sos e)sxi/sqh. *)ela/khse de\ e)ktu/phsen, a)nekrota/lhsen. *)ela/kkise de\ la/kkous w)/rucen.
Notes:
[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica. The headword is aorist indicative active of laka/w, third person singular. It must be quoted from somewhere -- almost certainly (given the amount of patristic comment on the passage) the New Testament: Acts 1.18, on the gruesome death of Judas (prhnh\s geno/menos e)la/khsen me/sos).
[2] A verb other than the headword seems needed here. Adler reports that mss FV read e)la/kise (from laki/zw: cf. lambda 56, lambda 57), as does ps.-Zonaras. This is the variant of the headword used by John Chrysostom and others.
[3] This verb (for which cf. very generally lambda 60) is attested only here.
