    Comments: The phrase δὶς ἀποθανόντα in {S:06500101200042} refers specifically to trees, but figuratively to persons. It is possible that δὶς ἀποθανόντα is applicable to trees (1) on the basis that they die while still standing and (2) that death is fully confirmed by their being rooted up, but in view of the figurative context, it is better to translate δὶς ἀποθανόντα as simply ‘completely dead.’
