Vocabulary of the Greek NT

Mayor (on 2 Peter 2:14) cites Longinus ii. 2, ἀστήρικτα καὶ ἀνερμάτιστα ";unstable and unballasted"; (Roberts) : this should be added to Grimm’s Anthology citation. We do not trouble much about vernacular warrant for words in 2 Pet. It occurs six times in Vettius Valens, in the phrase . λογισμοῦ ";unstable in judgement.";
