German term or phrase: S
Can anyone explain what S means in the following context? It occurs in a theological article published in 1973

"απ’ ούρανοϋ kommt im NT neben Röm 1,19; 1 Thess 4,16; 2 Thess 1,7; 1 Peter 1,12 nur bei Lukas vor: Lk 17,29 S (diff Mt); 21,11 diff Mk; 22,43 S (diff Mk)."

I have considered whether this might have something to do with the second part of the verses in question, but this isn't supported by reference to either the Greek or English text.

  -> Sie hatte nur nach dem S gefragt. Aber da es dahinter steht, bezieht es sich sicher wirklich auf eine Abschrift. (Vielleicht ist am Ende des Textes noch eine Liste der Abkürzungen.)

LXX


Explanation:
Could it refer to the Septuagint?

Luke is said to frequently borrow terminology from the Septuagint, hence, the use of this term may be also be a reference to Old Testament wording or content.
