    DefinitionShort: an advisory council of Athens dealing with ethical, cultural, and religious matters
    Glosses: council of the Areopagus
    Comments: It is also possible to understand τοῦ Αρείου Πάγου as referring to the location rather than to the council (see [a]).|It is probably wise in translating Αρειος Πάγος[b] to simply transliterate the expression, since it has the status of a proper name. On the other hand, it is extremely important that some footnote be employed so as to indicate something of the significance of this advisory council of Athens.
