62 πεδάω
πεδάω (fr. πέδη, cp. πέζα ‘instep’ Pollux 2, 192) aor. ptc. acc. pl. πεδήσαντες Da 3:20 Theod. Pass.: aor. ἐπεδήθην Da 4:33a, ptc. πεδήθεις (Tat. 9, 3); pf. 3 sg. πεπέδηται (Ath., R. 15 p. 66, 33), ptc. πεπεδημένος (Hom. et al.; also Paus. 8, 49, 6; LXX) ‘bind the feet with fetters’, then gener. bind, fetter, shackle (En 21:4; Philo, Aet. M. 129; SibOr 1, 371) ἐξαγαγεῖν ἐκ δεσμῶν πεπεδημένους καὶ ἐξ οἴκου φυλακῆς καθημένους ἐν σκότει to free prisoners from their bonds and from their dungeon those who sit in darkness B 14:7 (here, as in Just., the word πεπεδημένους, which occurs in sim. LXX passages [e.g. Ps 67:7 ἐξάγων πεπεδημένους], has come into the context of Is 42:7). The emendation πεπεδημένοι (for πεπηδημένοι) has been suggested for AcPl BMM verso 5, but Sanders, favoring Septuagint usage of ἐκπηδάω (q.v. 3) restores: [οἱ ἐ]ν̣ σκοτίᾳ θαν[άτου ἐκ]|πεπηδημένοι lines 4f (s. his note). The text continues: φῶς ἀνέτειλεν ὑμῖν and with the form πεπεδημένοι (which also fits in the lacuna of AcPl Ha 8, 32f) can be rendered for you, fettered in the darkness of death, the light has shined (cp. τοὺς νεκροὺς … πεπεδημένους καὶ τεθλιμμένους ἐν σκότῳ καὶ γνόφῳ ἐντὸς τοῦ Ἅιδου Cleopatra p. 15 ln. 44). But Sanders is reluctant to “accept an emendation in a manuscript so carefully written and belonging to the third century” (HTR 31, ’38, 87) and interprets ‘those who are living (sinfully) in the darkness of death’.—DELG s.v. πέδη. -
