1329. mvp-comment-851-1 Although ξυνηρεμεῖν, the reading of L pr. is not a vox nihili, —see L. and S., ξυνηρετεῖν, following the analogy of ὑπηρετεῖν, is much more probable, and the letter erased above the μ in L (see v. rr.) was probably T, so that ξυνηρετμεῖν has arisen from a confusion of the two readings. It has been tolerated even by some modern editors, though less supported by analogy than either ξυνηρετεῖν or ξυνηρεμεῖν.
