ἘΠΙΔΗΣ, ἐπιδης
EPIDĒS, epidēs
Sounds Like: eh-pi-DEES
Translations: you look upon, you behold, you cast upon, you throw upon, you lay upon
From the root: ΕΠΕΙΔΩ, ΕΠΙΤΙΘΗΜΙ
Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This word appears to be a conflation or misspelling of two different verbs, or it is used with different meanings in the provided context. In the first two examples, it seems to be a form of the verb ἐπείδω (epeidō), meaning 'to look upon' or 'to behold'. In the third example, it appears to be a form of the verb ἐπιτίθημι (epitithēmi), meaning 'to place upon', 'to lay upon', or 'to cast upon'. The form ἘΠΙΔΗΣ itself is not a standard inflection of either verb in Koine Greek, suggesting it might be a textual variant, a scribal error, or a very rare/archaic form. If it were from ἐπείδω, it would likely be an aorist subjunctive or imperative. If from ἐπιτίθημι, the form ἘΠΙΔΗΣΕΙΣ in the third example is a future indicative, but ἘΠΙΔΗΣ is not a direct form of ἐπιτίθημι.
Inflection: Second Person Singular, Aorist Subjunctive or Imperative (if from ἐπείδω); Possibly a textual variant or misspelling.
