17 εἶδον

εἶδον (Hom.+) used as the 2 aor. of ὁράω; mixed forms fr. 1 and 2 aor. somet. occur, and freq. as vv.ll. (B-D-F §81, 3; W-S. §13, 13; Rob. 337–39): εἶδα Rv 17:3 v.l.; εἴδαμεν Mk 2:12 v.l.; Ac 4:20, εἴδατε as v.l. Lk 7:22 and J 6:26, εἶδαν Mt 13:17; Mk 6:33 v.l.; Lk 10:24 al.; Ac 9:35. In gener., wherever εἶδον is read, the mixed form is found as v.l. Numerous mss. have both this and the phonetic spelling (B-D-F §23) ἴδον Rv 4:1; 6:1ff; ἴδες 1:19; ἴδεν Lk 5:2; Rv 1:2; ἴδομεν Lk 5:26; ἴδατε 7:22; ἴδετε Phil 1:30 (all as v.l.); subj. ἴδω; opt. ἴδοιμι; impv. ἴδε (Moeris p. 193 ἰδέ ἀττικῶς• ἴδε ἑλληνικῶς. W-S. §6, 7d; B-D-F §13; 101 p. 47 [ὁρᾶν]; Rob. 1215 [εἰδέω]; cp. PRyl 239, 21; LXX); inf. ἰδεῖν; ptc. ἰδών; mid. inf. ἰδέσθαι see. Since εἶδον functions as the aor. form of ὁράω, most of the mngs. found here will be duplicated s.v. ὁράω.

① to perceive by sight of the eye, see, perceive.

Just., A I, 32, 4 ὄψει … ἰδεῖν). The combination ἰδών εἶδον I have surely seen 7:34 (Ex 3:7) is Hebraistic (but cp. Lucian, D. Mar. 4, 3 Jacobitz). The ptc. with and without acc. freq. serves to continue a narrative Mt 2:10; 5:1; 8:34; Mk 5:22; 9:20; Lk 2:48 al. The acc. is to be supplied Mt 9:8, 11; 21:20; Mk 10:14; Lk 1:12; 2:17; Ac 3:12 al.

Ex. A fixed length field is a field which has the same length, that is, contains the same number of characters in each record.

Ex. There are only two sets of symbols whose orders are reasonably universally recognised: the letters of the Roman alphabet (either small or capitals), and Arabic numerals.

Ex. Schoolchildren, students, and other whose native language is written in a non-Roman script may find alphabetical order according to Roman characters an almost insurmountable hurdle in the use of catalogues and indexes.

Ex. Italic founts, which lacked small capitals, generally had about the same total number of sorts as roman because of the addition of extra ligatures and decorated (or 'swash') capitals.

Ex. Italic founts, which lacked small capitals, generally had about the same total number of sorts as roman.
