ἀλλ' ἐπὶ καὶ θανάτῳ φάρμακον κάλλιστον ἑᾶς ἀρετᾶς ἅλιξιν εὑρέσθαι σὺν ἄλλοις → even at the price of death, the fairest way to win his own exploits together with his other companions | but even at the risk of death would find the finest elixir of excellence together with his other companions | but to find, together with other young men, the finest remedy — the remedy of one's own valoreven at the risk of death

Τιβεριάδος, ἡ (from Τιβέριος), a city of Galilee, near the Lake of Gennesaret, which Herod Antipas, tetrarch of Galilee, greatly enlarged (but see BB. DD., under the word and especially Schürer, Neutest. Zeitgesch., p. 234note) and beautified, and named Tiberias in honor of Tiberius Caesar (Josephus, Antiquities 18,2, 3). It is now called Tubariyeh, a poor and wretched town of about 3,000 inhabitants, swarming with fleas for which the place is notorious throughout Syria: Winer s RWB, under the word; Rüetschi in Herzog edition 1 16:101; Weizsäcker in Sehenkel v., 526f; (Mühlau in Riehm, p. 1661 f); Bädeker, pp. 367-369.
