Afo/. xii. οὐ yap ἠρκέσθησαν [ot Αἰγύπτιοι] τοῖς τῶν Χαλδαίων καὶ “Ἑλλήνων σεβάσμασιν. For σεβασμός see M. Anton. iv. 16 τὸν σεβασμὸν τοῦ λόγου, “ΤΥ reverence of reason,” and cf. Aristeas 179 σεβασμὸν ἀποδοῦναι, ‘to pay homage.” The adj. σεβάσtos with reference to an oath may be seen in P Amh II. 140!
