Likewise, praecavete translates the άδελΦοί /µου of Phil 3:2” (, Holloway, “The Apocryphal Epistle to the Laodiceans and the partitioning of Philippians, HTR 91 [1998] 321–25CrossRefGoogle Scholar.

2 Verbs like Фuλάοоεσθаί and άΥρυπνείν are also frequently followed by same particles. G. D. Kilpatrick lays out the evidence on βλέπειν in his brief article “ΒΑΕπΕΤΕ Philippians 3:2,” in Black, Matthew and Fohrer, Georg, eds., In Memoriam PaulKahle (BZAW 103; Berlin: Töpelmann, 1968) 146–48;Google Scholar cf. BAGD 143b s.v. βλέπω. Thus Phil 3:2 would mean something like “Look at (or See) the dogs! Look at those evil workers!”
