Notes: {'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'It would be possible to treat λίνον[a] linen cloth ({D:6.165}) and βύσσος fine linen ({D:6.166}) as meaning linen garments and fine linen garments respectively. However, there is no need for setting up such a separate meaning for NT usage, especially since in both {S:06601500600030} and {S:04201601900020} the semantic element of garment or clothing is a significant compound of the verb meaning to dress, and thus the referents would naturally be garments. The same applies to πορφύρα ({D:6.169}) in {S:04201601900020}.'}
