διάνοια, ἐὰν ἐρευνᾷς τοὺς ἱεροφαντηθέντας λόγους μὲν θεοῦ, νόμους δὲ ἀνθρώπων θεοφιλῶν, οὐδὲν ταπεινὸν οὐδ᾽ ἀνάξιον τοῦ μεγέθους αὐτῶν ἀναγκασθήσῃ παραδέχεσθαι → if, O my understanding, thou searchest on this wise into the oracles which are both words of God and laws given by men whom God loves, thou shalt not be compelled to admit anything base or unworthy of their dignity

Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: f. pl.
Meaning: later born daughters (Hekat. 363 J.); H. also ἔπισσον τὸ ὕστερον γενόμενον.
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: For the formation cf. μέτασσαι f. pl. lams of middle age (ι 221); (perh. also the place names Ἄμφισσα, Ἄντισσα). Derivation uncertain; perh. a τ-ι̯ο-suffix (Schulze KZ 40, 412ff. = Kl. Schr. 71 n. 1), or -κ-ιο-. Acc. to Giles ClassRev. 3, 3f. ἔπι-σσαι would be analogical after μέτ-ασσαι = μετ-οῦσαι with archaic disappearance of the zero grade of the ptc. f. See Schwyzer 472 w. n. 2.

Frisk Etymology German

ἔπισσαι: {épissai}
Grammar: f. pl.
Meaning: nachgeborene Töchter (Hekat. 363 J.); H. auch ἔπισσον· τὸ ὕστερον γενόμενον.
Etymology : Zur Bildung vgl. zunächst μέτασσαι f. pl. Lämmer mittleren Alters (ι 221); auch die Stadtnamen Ἄμφισσα, Ἄντισσα. Ableitung mehrdeutig; am nächsten liegt ein τι̯ο-Suffix (Schulze KZ 40, 412ff. = Kl. Schr. 71 A. 1). Nach Giles ClassRev. 3, 3f. wäre ἔπισσαι Analogiebildung nach μέτασσαι ̂ μετοῦσαι mit altertümlicher Schwundstufe des Ptz. f. Ältere Auffassungen bei Bq s. v.; s. noch Schwyzer 472 m. A. 2 und Lit.
