Strong’s Greek Lexicon
perhaps from G3700 (through the idea of the shading or proximity to the organ of vision); the eye-“brow” or forehead, i.e. (figuratively) the brink of a precipice:—brow.
Owing to changes in the enumeration while in progress, there were no words left for numbers 2717 and 3203–3302, which were therefore silently dropped out of the vocabulary and references as redundant.
