Notes: {'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': ['04400503600046'], 'Content': 'It would be possible to understand πείθομαι in {S:04400503600046} as meaning ‘those who trust in’ or ‘… rely on,’ and as such πείθομαι would then be classified along with πείθω[b] ‘to trust in,’ ‘to have complete confidence in’ ({D:31.82}). However, in {S:04400503600046} the meaning seems to be much closer to that of μαθητεύω[a] and ἀκολουθέω[c] ({D:36.31}), since in {S:04400503600046} the emphasis is upon the relationship of followers to Theudas rather than upon their confidence in or reliance upon him.'}
