A and B of LXX, and τερέβινθος by all the uncials in Is. 1.30, 6.13 and four times elsewhere, cf. AP 9.282 (Antip. Thess.), Gp. 9.18.1; in Gal. codd. vary (v. supr.); a fem. τερεβίνθη prob. in PMag.Par. 1.1312, v.l. in Gal. 6.644; τρέμιθος (q.v.) is also found; τεττερέβινθος in Gloss. seems to be an error: cf. Τερβινθεύς.)
