Post-antique / Byzantine references to Matthew 27:25

Two kind correspondents have sent me the results of a search of the TLG for references to wording found in Matt.27:25.  I have used these (different!) outputs, to supplement my blog post on ancient references, which hitherto ends with Procopius of Gaza.  This has added a few extra items: the big finds are a bunch of references to Cyril of Alexandria, about whom there was nothing in BiblIndex; and a couple of odd references.  The results of the TLG search are not comprehensive either.  In many cases BiblIndex had additional results for an author.  So clearly both must be used.

But there are further authors right through the Byzantine period.  Now these lie outside the scope of my original enquiry, which itself is proving larger than I had thought! I may or may not do anything with these later writers, in the way of examining them or translating them. But here is a list anyway.  Note that when the TLG refers to “Volume nn, page mm, line xx” it seems to mean the Patrologia Graeca vol. nn, column mm, line xx.
