Greek Original:
*periista/menos: feu/gwn. *)iw/shpos peri\ *mwu+se/ws: perii/stato ga/r, mh\ polloi\ th=s tw=n lo/gwn a)selgei/as au)tou= mimhtai\ ge/nwntai.
Notes:
[1] = Synagoge, Photius pi697 Theodoridis. The headword is the present middle participle, nominative singular masculine, of perii/sthmi (on which see also pi 1163). It must be extracted from somewhere (but not from the quotation given here, which has the imperfect middle indicative, third person singular); there are numerous possibilities.
[2] A close approximation of Josephus, Jewish Antiquities 4.151 (see web address 1).
