  I tried the on-line Liddel-Scott Greek lexicon, which, unsurprisingly, did not
have the name (Liddel-Scott being more Homeric era Greek).  I also tried my Greek
New Testament which has a small lexicon in the back.  Strike two.  So, assuming 
that Thelesphori is a person or event, it would appear to be after when the Bible
was written, though it could still be an early Church father.

P.S.  Hey, Pedro, miss Dernehealde?
