(Is. xxix. 19; 2 Macc. ix. 18; Sir. xxii. 21; [xxvii. 21; Judith ix. 11]; often in Polyb. and Diod. [cf. Soph. Lex. s. v.].)*

Lexicographers (following Suidas, ‘ἀπέλθῃ· ἀντὶ τοῦ ἐπανέλθῃ’) incorrectly ascribe to ἀπέρχεσθαι also the idea of returning, going back,—misled by the fact that a going away is often at the same time a going back.
