Dear Ben,

Thank you for your further clarification. I knew that Wenham had some
excellent material, but I do not have his commentary to hand.

One small point: neither Hartley nor I was suggesting that the modern
disease elephantiasis is relevant here. The reference was to the
presumably quite different disease known by the ancient Greeks as
ELEFANTIASIS.
