Note 1264 — Chapter X · ORPHIC MYSTERIES.
Reading edition
Plat. Legg. 873 B, schol. ad loc. ἀφοσιούτω* καθαιρέτω, ὡς νῦν, ἢ ἀπαρχὰς προσαγέτω, ἢ τιμάτω, ἢ τὴν ἐπὶ θανάτῳ ἀποδιδότω τιμήν, ἢ πληροφορείτω. I owe the reference to this interesting passage to Mr F. M. Cornford. I am not sure what the scholiast means by the post-classical word πληροφορέω; the passive means in the New Testament ‘to have full assurance’ of faith and the like. It may point to the final stage of initiation.
