Greek display:    

Headword: *sxh/sesqai
Adler number: sigma,1786
Translated headword: to be held
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] to be held up.
Greek Original:
*sxh/sesqai: e)pisxeqh/sesqai.
Note:
Likewise in the Synagoge (sigma430) and Photius' Lexicon (sigma906 Theodoridis), similarly elsewhere. The headword is future middle infinitive of the verb e)/xw (glossed with the future passive infinitive of e)pi/sxw, a reduplicate form of e)pe/xw). It is probably quoted from Homer, who uses the word several times, e.g. Iliad 9.665; cf. scholia ad loc.
