Thayer's Greek Lexicon

ἀνάπειρος, a false spelling (arising from itacism (cf. Phryn. in Bekker, Anecd. i., p. 9, 22: διά τοῦ ἤ τήν τρίτην, οὐ διά τῆς εἰ διφθογγου ὡς οἱ ἀμαθεῖς)) in some manuscripts in Luk_14:13; Luk_14:21 (and adopted by L Tr WH; (see WH. Appendix, p. 151)) for ἀνάπηρος, which see. STRONGS NT 376: ἀνάπηροςἀνάπηρος, ἀναπηρον (properly, πηρός from the lowest part to the highest ἀνά; hence, Suidas ὁ καθ' ὑπερβολήν πεπηρωμενος (cf. Lob. Path. Elementa 1:195)), disabled in the limbs, maimed, crippled; injured in, or bereft of, some member of the body: Luk_14:13; Luk_14:21 ἀναπήρους, χωλούς, τυφλούς. In both these passages L Tr WH have adopted with certain manuscripts the spelling ἀναπείρους manifestly false, as arising from itacism. (Plato, Crito, p. 53 a. χωλοί καί τυφλοί καί ἄλλοι ἀναπηροι; Aristotle, h. a. 7, 6 (vol. i., p. 585b, 29) τινονται ἐξ ἀναπηρων ἀναπηροι; Lysias quoted in Suidas ῤῖνα καί ὦτα ἀνάπηρος; 2Ma_8:24 τοῖς μέλεσιν ἀναπήρους.)
