Thayer's Greek Lexicon
λαμά (R G (on the accent see Tdf. Proleg. 102)) in Mat_27:46 and λαμμᾶ (R G) Mar_15:34 (the Hebrew word μΘξΘΜδ from Psa_21:1 ()), why; in the former passage Lachmann reads λῆμα, in the latter λεμα, Tdf. λεμα in both, Tr WH λεμα in Matt. but λαμά in Mark; the form in ἤ or ἐ reproduces the Chaldean μΐξΘΰ or μΐξΘδ; on the remarkable diversity of spelling in the manuscripts cf. Tdf. on each passage (WH on Matthew, the passage cited), and Fritzsche on Mark, p. 693.
