Luk 15:23. Τὸν μόσχον τὸν σιτευτὸν) Jdg 6:25, τὸν μόσχον τὸν σιτευτὸν καὶ μόσχον δεύτερον ἑπταετῆ.[163] The article denotes pre-eminent excellence.-εὐφρανθῶμεν, let us enjoy ourselves [‘lætemur,’ rejoice: Engl. Vers. “be merry”]) This word is repeated with the greatest emphasis in Luk 15:24; Luk 15:32.

[163] The reading approved of in Grabe’s LXX.; but the Vatican copy has τὸν μίσχον τὸν ταῦρον.-E. and T.
