a -sid´ū̇ -us : Occurs only in The Wisdom of Solomon 8:18 the Revised Version (British and American), "In assiduous communing with her is understanding," i.e. "in continued exercise of fellowship." The idea expressed in the adjective is contained in the prepositional prefix, sūn of the original suggumnası́a , giving the verb intensive force.
