Winers Grammar, § 30, 10 a.; (Buttmann, § 132, 15; but others regard σπλαγχνισθείς in the following example as used absolutely and the genitive as depending on κύριος)), Matthew 18:27; ἐπί with the dative of the person, Matthew 14:14 G L T Tr WH; Mark 6:34 (R G); Luke 7:13 (where Tdf. ἐπί with the accusative); ἐπί τινα, Matthew 14:14 Rec.; Matthew 15:32; Mark (Mark 6:34 L T Tr WH); Mark 8:2; 9:22; cf.
