Adler number: epsilon,737
Translated headword: their deeds shone out
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
Meaning [their deeds] made them famous.
Greek Original:
*)/elamyan au)tw=n ta\ e)/rga: a)nti\ tou= fanerou\s au)tou\s e)poi/hsan.
Note:
The headword quotation is unidentifiable in this precise form, but might in fact be faulty. Photius, Lexicon epsilon554 gives it in the singular: e)/lamyan au)to\n ta\ e)/rga: a)nti\ tou= fanero\n au)to\n e)poi/hsan ("made him famous"); likewise, Adler reports, in mss AF of the Suda; and ps.-Zonaras has e)/lamyan glossed with fanera\ e)ge/nonto and the quotation e)/lamyan ta\ kala\ e)/rga sou. The latter is broadly reminiscent of Matthew 5.16: "let your light so shine (lamya/tw) before men that they may see your good works (u(mw=n ta\ kala\ e)/rga)".
