Matthew 18:6

18:6

anyone causes <4624> [offend.]

little <3398> [little.]

millstone <2443 3458> [that a.]

This mode of punishment appears to have obtained in Syria as well as in Greece, especially in cases of parricide. That it was customary in Greece we learn from Suidas, in [hyperbolon lithon,] and the scholiast on the Equites of Aristophanes: [Hotan <\\See definition 3752\\> gar <\\See definition 1063\\> katara <\\See definition 2671\\> tinos <\\See definition 5099\\> baros <\\See definition 922\\> apo <\\See definition 575\\> ton trachelos <\\See definition 5137\\> kremannumi <\\See definition 2910\\>.] "When a person was drowned, they hung a weight about his neck."
