         Comments: It is also possible to interpret ἐπερώτημα in {S:06000302100030} as meaning ‘pledge’ or ‘promise,’ in which case it may be classified under {D:33.288}. Accordingly, the phrase συνειδήσεως ἀγαθῆς ἐπερώτημα εἰς θεόν may be rendered as ‘a promise made to God from a good conscience.’
