title "tou presbyterou" edit

tou presbyterou means "of the priest", not "the priest". What is the source for this? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 12:53, 15 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

settled: the Greek is ambiguous, since tou presbyterou is genitive and its meaning depends on Hesychius. In ancient titles genitive is normal: "work XXX of Hesychius, the priest"--Sever Juan (talk) 14:47, 16 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
