Yes, both EPIDEIKNUS and APODEIKNUS appear in the NT as participles.
Jim Brooks and I listed DEIKNUS as a possible 2nd sing but we put it
in brackets showing that the form did not appear in our literature. I
forgot about the brackets. We also gave it as an example the present
participle of a class IV.M verb without brackets. P. 359 A Morphology
of NT Greek. We gave forms in brackets so that students would have
complete conjugations but would not necessarily need to memorize
them. I memorized the indicative form and forgot about the
participle. I should not type out of my head any more.
