Is there any derivative of root *bHh2eg- (or bh2eg-?), outside Indo-Iranian and Slavic? I know about Greek phag- "to eat".

Beekes analysis links:

Grk. daimo:n 'godlike power' with an original meaning 'divider' and
derived it from the Gk. daiomai 'to divide' < PIE *deh2-(i)-

In addition Beekes considers that we have a similar construction in:

Slavic bogU 'God' (other derived words : Sl. bogatU etc..) based on
Skt. bhájati 'to divide' (other derived words : Skt. bhága etc...) <
PIE *bHh2eg- will mean in this case 'to divide' too, based mainly on
the Skt. verb and on the above association.

Any comment here?
