Notes:
This unglossed headword is an exclusively Christian term used to refer to (and condemn) pederasty. An injunction against the practice was added to the sixth commandment by early Christian authors, to expand the existing one against adultery. See Epistle of Barnabas 19.4a (web address 1), Didache XII Apostolorum 2.2.1 (web address 2).
