Unbeknownst to me, Ezekiel the Tragedian was a one of the few early greek dramas that survived (more comedies). And it gets picked up in Eusebius, and Clement of Alexandria centuries later. Plus dated by the resurrected phoenix, used by Clement of Rome (the bird later to become a sort of sports car ... Thunderbird).
All this exciting information reading the Bible commentary on Isaiah part 2.

It appears the whole commentary is treating Isa2 as a drama. Structure, players, stage directions, the whole kaboodle. (Why I titled the thread).
It's amazing what you'll find in Logos. There's another commentary that goes in-depth on accoustic/music patterns (no, not Psalms ... more sophisticated).
And for that famous, "prepare ye the way ..." ... yes, said by actor 2. The drama had 3 actors.
Ok, where oh where is the greek etymology ship??
