G2601.1

καταβιόω (katabioō)

(kah-tah-vee-O-o)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to live out one's days, spend one's life (κατά + βίος, life); imperative here. Amaziah's deportation order to Amos: 'Seer, go — withdraw to the land of Judah, and spend your life there, and prophesy there' (Amos 7:12) — Bethel's priest treating prophecy as a trade best practiced where it is paid ('eat bread there'), and the king's chapel as a no-prophecy zone (Amos 7:13). Amos's answer dismantles the premise: 'I was no prophet, nor a prophet's son — I was a herdsman, and the LORD took me from behind the flock' (Amos 7:14-15). A calling is not a career; it cannot be transferred by expulsion (Acts 4:19-20).

to spend one's life
to live out one's days

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Amos 7:12 (proceed! withdraw into the land of Judah, and there spend your life! and there you shall prophesy).

to cry out (to, against)
to raise an outcry

Septuagint usage

4 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 5:15 (the foremen of the sons of Israel cried out to Pharaoh — "why do you deal thus with your servants?"); Exodus 22:23 ("if you afflict the widow or the orphan at all, and they cry out to Me, I will surely hear their cry"); Exodus 22:27 (the cloak taken in pledge — "when he cries out to Me, I will hear, for I am compassionate").

Rachel and Leah's verdict on their father: 'are we not counted as foreigners to him? For he has sold us, and has utterly devoured our silver' (Genesis 31:15) — daughters priced as merchandise, their bride-wealth consumed instead of settled on them. Laban's fourteen years of extracted labor (Genesis 31:41) sit behind the complaint; the God of Bethel had watched every year of it (Genesis 31:12, 42) — the Father who does not consume His children but is spent for them (2 Corinthians 12:14).

The ark's floor-plan: 'the door of the ark you shall make in the side; with ground-level, second, and third stories you shall make it' (Genesis 6:16) — three decks and one door, room built in advance for every creature that would be brought in (Genesis 6:19-20; 7:16, where the LORD shuts the one door). Salvation's architecture is roomy and single-entried at once — many decks, one way in (John 10:9; 1 Peter 3:20).

κατάγελως (katagelōs)

(kah-TAH-gheh-los)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — derision, mocking laughter (from καταγελάω, to laugh down). From Micah's punning dirge over the lowland towns: 'you in Gath, do not magnify yourselves; you in Baca, do not rebuild your house with laughter — strew earth upon your laughter' (Micah 1:10) — dust thrown where laughing was, the mourner's handful ending the joke. The line opens with David's old lament-rule, 'tell it not in Gath' (2 Samuel 1:20): grief kept from the scoffers. Laughter and dust trade places on God's calendar — 'let your laughter be turned to mourning' now (James 4:9), that mourning may be turned to dancing after (Psalm 30:11).

derision
mocking laughter

Septuagint usage

I made, and I shall spare; I shall take you up, and I shall save you' (Isaiah 46:4) — spoken over against Bel and Nebo, gods that must be hauled on ox-carts and 'cannot save the burden' (Isaiah 46:1-2). Idols are carried; the LORD carries. The doubled ἐγώ εἰμι ('I AM') holds the whole span from womb to white hair (Isaiah 46:3) — the same voice that says 'before Abraham was, I am' (John 8:58) and 'I am with you all the days' (Matthew 28:20).

to reach old age

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Isaiah 46:4 (until old age, I am; and until whenever you should become aged, I am; I endure you — I made, and I shall spare; I shall take up and I shall deliver you).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to show forth for the first time: to introduce, establish, invent.

From Isaiah's admission-exam of the nation-as-patient: 'from feet to head there is no soundness — neither wound, nor welt, nor inflamed sore are healed; there is no dressing to apply, nor oil, nor bandages' (Isaiah 1:6) — a body wholly injured and wholly untreated, not beyond care but refusing it (Isaiah 1:5). The book keeps the case open until the Physician appears in it: 'by His stripes we are healed' (Isaiah 53:5) — and the gospel's Samaritan supplies the missing treatment line by line, binding wounds, pouring oil (Luke 10:34; Psalm 147:3).

The low point of Lamentations before its hinge: 'I shall remember, and my soul will muse down upon me' (Lamentations 3:20) — memory of wormwood and gall replayed until the soul sinks under its own recital. The very next breath is the book's turn: 'this I recall to my heart, therefore I will hope: the mercies of the LORD are not consumed... new every morning' (Lamentations 3:21-23) — rumination interrupted by a better remembering (Psalm 42:5-6).

Definition

From Asa's costliest reform: 'Maachah his mother he removed from ruling, because she held a convocation in her sacred grove; and Asa cut down her retreats and burned them at the brook Kidron' (1 Kings 15:13) — the queen mother's cult-warrens dismantled by her own son, the idol burned in the valley that became reform's standing incinerator (2 Kings 23:4-6). Zeal that will depose a grandmother measures the first commandment's rank above family (Deuteronomy 33:9; Matthew 10:37).

hidden retreat
grotto

The response-line of Hezekiah's wall-speech: 'with him are arms of flesh, but with us is the LORD our God, to save and to fight our war — and the people took courage upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah' (2 Chronicles 32:8). Sennacherib's arithmetic was correct and irrelevant; courage transferred through a true word about God outweighed an army (2 Chronicles 32:21; the theology compressed at 2 Kings 6:16, 'those with us are more').

to take courage
to rely with confidence

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Chronicles 32:8 (with him are arms of flesh, but with us is the LORD our God, to deliver and to wage our war; and the people relied with confidence upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah).

to break in pieces
to crush

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Psalms 42:10 ("in the breaking in pieces of my bones, the ones afflicting me berated me — in their saying to me day by day, 'where is your God?'"); Isaiah 63:3 ("I am full of trampled grape — I trampled them in rage, and I broke them in pieces, and I led down their blood to the earth").

The throwing-down follows, 'according to the word of the LORD which he spoke by Elijah' (2 Kings 9:33-36; 1 Kings 21:23) — a generation late by men's clocks, exact by God's (Ecclesiastes 8:11-13).

G2641.1

κατάλειψις (kataleipsis)

(kah-TAH-lipe-sis)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a remnant-survival, what is left remaining (from καταλείπω, to leave behind; doubled in this verse with κατάλειμμα, remnant). Joseph's theology of his own slavery: 'God sent me before you, that a remnant may be left to you upon the earth, and to nourish for you a great survival' (Genesis 45:7) — the sold brother re-narrated as advance man of preservation ('you sold me... God sent me,' 45:5, 8). Here the Bible's remnant-doctrine takes its first full breath: God keeping a seed alive through catastrophe (Isaiah 1:9; Romans 11:5) — by means of a rejected brother exalted to the right hand of power (Acts 7:9-14).

remnant-survival
what is left

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Genesis 45:7 (for God sent me in front of you, that there may be left to you a vestige upon the earth, and to nourish for you a great remnant).

G2641.2

καταλέω (kataleō)

(kah-tah-LEH-o)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to grind down fine (κατά + ἀλέω, to grind). Both occurrences grind the same idol: Moses took the calf, burned it with fire, and ground it fine — the retold act of Deuteronomy adding "exceedingly, until it became as dust" — the thoroughness of true repentance's iconoclasm.

to grind down
to pulverize

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 32:20 (he took the calf which they made and incinerated it in fire — and ground it fine, and sowed it upon the water, and made the sons of Israel drink it); Deuteronomy 9:21 ("your sin which you made — the calf — I took and incinerated it in fire, and beat it, grinding it down exceedingly until it became fine; and it became as dust, and I tossed the dust into the rushing stream descending from the mountain").

G2641.3

κατάληψις (katalēpsis)

(kah-TAH-lape-sis)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a taking, seizure, capture (κατά + λαμβάνω, to seize). From the siege-law: 'if you besiege a city many days, warring against it for its capture, you shall not destroy its trees by lifting iron against them — you shall eat from them, but not cut them down' (Deuteronomy 20:19). Even the vocabulary of conquest is fenced by stewardship: the objective ('capture') may not justify the means (an orchard's destruction). Warfare under Torah remains creation-aware — the tree is not the enemy (Deuteronomy 20:19b), and the LORD's own conquests end with vines and fig trees kept, not burned (Micah 4:3-4).

capture
seizure

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Deuteronomy 20:19 (but if you should besiege around a city many days to wage war against it for taking it, you shall not utterly destroy its trees by putting upon them an iron axe).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to stone down, overwhelm with stones (κατά + λιθοβολέω). The mob-verb of the wilderness: Moses crying that yet a little and the people will stone me — and the whole congregation moving to stone Joshua and Caleb for believing God about the land, when the glory of the LORD appeared and stopped them.

to stone utterly
to cast stones at

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 17:4 (Moses yelled to the LORD, saying — "what shall I do with this people? Yet a little while and they will cast stones at me"); Numbers 14:10 (the whole congregation spoke to stone them with stones — and the glory of the LORD appeared in a cloud over the tent of the testimony to all the sons of Israel).

(kah-TAH-lee-thos)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — set close with stones, inlaid with precious stones (κατά + λίθος).

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 28:17 (you shall weave in it a woven-work inlaid with precious stones — four rows of stones; a row of sardius, topaz, and emerald the first row); Exodus 39:10 (the parallel execution — the breastplate work inlaid with precious stones, the four rows set as the LORD gave orders to Moses).

to leave behind
to forsake

Septuagint usage

3 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Genesis 39:16 (Potiphar's wife left his garment beside her until his master came home — the evidence of her lie); 2 Samuel 5:21 (the Philistines left their idols behind at Baal-perazim — and David and his men carried them away); 1 Kings 18:18 (Elijah to Ahab — "I have not troubled Israel, but you and your father's house — in your leaving the commandments of the LORD and going after the Baals").

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to be reckoned among, counted in with (κατά + λογίζομαι, to reckon). The reception awaiting the king of Babylon in Sheol: 'all shall answer and say to you, You also were captured as we — and are you reckoned among us?' (Isaiah 14:10) — the shades' astonished arithmetic as the world-shaker is filed with the powerless, maggots for bedding and worm for covering (Isaiah 14:11). It is the ledger-scene of the taunt-song that peaks at 'Day Star, fallen from heaven' (Isaiah 14:12-15): all self-exaltation ends re-reckoned downward (Luke 10:18; 14:11).

to be reckoned among
to be counted with

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Isaiah 14:10 (all shall answer and shall say to you, You also were captured as even we; and among us are you reckoned?).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — enrollment by companies, register of divisions (κατά + λόχος, company). From the machinery of Hezekiah's revival: the temple-portions were distributed 'by enrollment, in all the genealogy of their sons and their daughters, in the entire multitude — for in faithfulness they sanctified the holy things' (2 Chronicles 31:18). Revival that lasts grows ledgers: storerooms, officers, genealogies, every priest's child on the roll (2 Chronicles 31:11-19). The register is doctrine in table form — God's service feeds its servants' households by name (1 Corinthians 9:13-14), and heaven itself keeps enrollment (Luke 10:20).

enrollment by divisions
register

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Chronicles 31:18 (in classification, in all the genealogy of their sons and their daughters, in the entire multitude; for in trust they sanctified the holy things).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list.

κατάλυσις (katalysis)

(kah-TAH-lee-sis)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a lodging, resting-place (from καταλύω, to unyoke for the night — the family of κατάλυμα, the 'inn' of Bethlehem, Luke 2:7). From the verdict on Edom: 'hear the plan of the LORD which he planned against Edom... Surely the least of the sheep shall be dragged off; surely their resting-place shall be made desolate over them' (Jeremiah 49:20) — the fold itself unmade, no pen left to return to at dusk. Edom's crag-security (Jeremiah 49:16) ends without a lodging — while the flock of the LORD is promised the opposite: 'they shall lie down in a good fold' (Ezekiel 34:14-15; Psalm 23:2).

lodging
resting-place

Septuagint usage

to dissolve, disunite
- (what has been joined together), to destroy, demolish
- metaphorically to overthrow i.e., render vain, deprive of success, bring to naught
  - to subvert, overthrow
    - of institutions, forms of government, laws, etc., to deprive of force, annul, abrogate, discard
- of travellers, to halt on a journey, to put up, lodge (the figurative expression originating in the circumstance that, to put up for the night, the straps and packs of the beasts of burden are unbound and taken off; or, more correctly from the fact that the traveller's garments, tied up when he is on the journey, are unloosed at it end)

G2648

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to divide out, apportion as inheritance (κατά, out + μερίζω, to divide).

to divide out
to apportion (an inheritance)

Septuagint usage

4 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Leviticus 25:46 (bondservants of the nations — "you shall divide them as inheritance to your children after you"); Numbers 32:18 (Gad and Reuben's vow — "we will not return to our houses until every son of Israel has been apportioned his inheritance"); Numbers 34:29 (the men the LORD commanded to apportion the inheritance to the sons of Israel in the land of Canaan); Deuteronomy 19:3 ("prepare the road and divide into three parts the territory of your land" — so the manslayer can reach refuge).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to mix in, intermingle throughout (κατά + μίγνυμι, to mix); perfect passive participle here. From the ephod's goldsmithing: 'you shall make two bordered fringes of pure gold, intermingled with flowers, a work of wreathen craft; and you shall place them upon the shoulder-pieces' (Exodus 28:14) — chains of pure gold braided through with blossom-work, the priest's shoulders carrying stone-set names by cords that are themselves garden-and-glory. Sanctuary craftsmanship keeps quoting Eden (flowers, gold, guarded entry — Exodus 25:31-34; Genesis 2:11-12): the priest walks toward God dressed as the garden regained (Hebrews 9:24).

to intermingle
to mix throughout

Septuagint usage

to deride
to mock

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Chronicles 30:10 (the couriers were going through city by city, from mount Ephraim and unto Zebulun — and they became as ones deriding and mocking them; yet certain ones humbled themselves and came); Jeremiah 38:19 (the king said to Jeremiah — "I am concerned for the Jews who have deserted to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hands and they shall deride me").

κατανέμομαι (katanemomai)

(kah-tah-NEH-mo-my)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to graze down, feed upon (κατά + νέμω, to pasture). The vine-psalm's trespasser: 'the boar from the forest laid her waste, and the solitary wild beast grazes her down' (Psalm 80:13) — the vine carried out of Egypt, planted, and walled (Psalm 80:8-11), now browsed by whatever pushes through the breach. The psalm's remedy escalates from a repaired fence to a Person: 'let your hand be upon the man of your right hand, upon the son of man you strengthened for yourself' (Psalm 80:17) — answered by the true Vine no boar can root out (John 15:1).

to graze down
to feed upon

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to rise up against (κατά + ἀνίστημι, to rise). Korah's manifesto: 'all the congregation are holy, every one, and the LORD is among them — why do you rise up against the assembly of the LORD?' (Numbers 16:3) — rebellion drafted in liturgical language, mutiny wearing the vocabulary of holiness. The answer is left to God: 'in the morning the LORD will show who is his' (Numbers 16:5) — and the ground's mouth renders the verdict on rising-up (Numbers 16:31-33). The New Testament files the pattern under its permanent warning: 'the rebellion of Korah' (Jude 11).

to rise up against
to stand against

Septuagint usage

The sun's itinerary in the heavens-psalm: 'from one tip of heaven is his going forth, and his arrival is unto the other tip of heaven — and there is no one who shall be hidden from his heat' (Psalm 19:6) — the bridegroom-sun (19:5) running the full arc, no hemisphere unvisited. Paul borrows this psalm's reach for the gospel's: 'their voice has gone out into all the earth' (Psalm 19:4 at Romans 10:18) — and the risen 'sun of righteousness' (Malachi 4:2) makes the same complete circuit, light arriving everywhere (Luke 1:78-79).

(kah-TAH-xee-ros)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — utterly dried up, parched through (κατά + ξηρός, dry). The craving-camp's self-diagnosis: 'but now our soul is dried up; nothing except this manna before our eyes' (Numbers 11:6) — heaven's daily bread reclassified as deprivation by appetites keeping Egypt's menu in memory (Numbers 11:5). The dryness was real; its cause was misfiled — not the manna's poverty but the palate's exile. The true Bread meets the same weariness ('what sign do you do?... our fathers ate manna') and answers it: 'I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger' (John 6:30-35).

3 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Kings 2:23 (as Elisha went up to Bethel, small boys came out of the city and mocked him — "go up, baldhead! go up, baldhead!"); Jeremiah 2:16 (the sons of Memphis and Tahpanhes knew you — and they mocked you); Jeremiah 9:5 (each one mocks his friend, and they do not speak truth — they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves committing iniquity).

καταπανουργεύομαι (katapanourgeuomai)

(kah-tah-pah-noor-GHEV-o-my)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to deal craftily against, scheme with cunning (κατά + πανουργεύομαι, from πανοῦργος, crafty). The confederacy psalm's opening charge: 'against your people they dealt craftily in design, and consulted against your holy ones — they said, Come, let us obliterate them from being a nation' (Psalm 83:3-4) — ten allied names drafted for one erasure (Psalm 83:5-8). The psalm answers cunning with petition, not counter-plot: 'that they may seek your name, O LORD' (Psalm 83:16) — and the people marked 'your hidden ones' (83:3, Hebrew) stay unerasable, kept where no confederacy reaches (Colossians 3:3; Matthew 16:18).

to scheme craftily against
to conspire

Septuagint usage

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a trampling, treading-down (from καταπατέω, to trample). The inventory of Jehoahaz's Israel: 'there was not left to him a people, but only fifty horsemen and ten chariots and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria destroyed them, and made them as dust for trampling' (2 Kings 13:7) — a national army reduced to road-dust. Yet the same paragraph holds the counterweight: 'the LORD was gracious to them, and pitied them, and turned toward them because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and was not willing to destroy them' (2 Kings 13:23) — trodden nearly to nothing, kept entirely by covenant (Lamentations 3:22; Isaiah 63:9).

trampling
treading-down

καταπελματόομαι (katapelmatoomai)

(kah-tah-pel-mah-TO-o-my)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to be re-soled, patched on the sole (κατά + πέλμα, the sole of the foot); perfect participle in the Gibeonite costume-list: 'their sandals old and patched on their feet, and their garments old upon them, and the bread of their provision dry and moldy' (Joshua 9:5). The patched soles sold the fiction of a distant journey — stagecraft aimed precisely at the treaty-clause for far cities (Deuteronomy 20:15; Joshua 9:6, 9). Israel inspected the shoes and skipped the inquiry (Joshua 9:14); the LORD's counsel, not the props, was the missing verification (Proverbs 3:5-6).

patched on the sole
re-soled

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Joshua 9:5 (and their sandals old and mended on their feet, and their garments being old upon them, and the bread loaves of their provisions were dry and moldy).

καταπενθέω (katapentheō)

(kah-tah-pen-THEH-o)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to mourn deeply, grieve down (κατά, intensive + πενθέω, to mourn). Israel's response to the worst sentence in Exodus: 'I will not go up in your midst, lest I consume you in the way' — 'and the people, hearing this severe word, mourned in mourning' (Exodus 33:3-4), stripping off their ornaments at Horeb (33:6). The grief is exactly calibrated: not over lost Canaan but lost company — and it fuels Moses' greatest intercession: 'if your presence does not go, do not bring us up from here' (Exodus 33:15). The mourning that will not settle for blessings without the Blesser is the mourning that gets comforted (Matthew 5:4; Exodus 33:14).

to mourn deeply
to grieve

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 33:4 (and the people, hearing this severe saying, mourned in mourning).

(kah-tah-PEH-to-my)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to fly down and away (κατά + πέτομαι, to fly). Proverbs' portrait of self-exile: 'as a bird when it flies down out of its own nest, so a man is enslaved when he estranges himself from his own places' (Proverbs 27:8) — the LXX sharpening 'wanders' to 'is enslaved': leaving one's given place feels like flight and lands as bondage. It is the prodigal's itinerary in one proverb — the far country reached by wing, endured as a hired hand's chains (Luke 15:13-15) — until the flight home to the place and the Father that were his own (Luke 15:17-20).

to fly away
to flit from the nest

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Proverbs 27:8 (as a bird whenever it flies down from out of its own nest, so a man is enslaved whenever he estranges himself from out of his own places).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to leap down (κατά + πηδάω). Two dismountings at decisive meetings: Rebekah leaping down from the camel at first sight of Isaac — and Naaman leaping down from his chariot to meet running Gehazi, the courtesy of a cleansed man about to be exploited.

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Genesis 24:64 (Rebekah, looking up with the eyes, saw Isaac — and she leaped down from the camel); 2 Kings 5:21 (Gehazi hastened after Naaman — and Naaman saw him running after him, and leaped down from the chariot to meet him).

(kah-TAH-pik-ros)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — exceedingly bitter, fierce of soul (κατά, intensive + πικρός, bitter). Hushai's expert testimony on David's veterans: 'you know your father and his men, that they are exceedingly mighty, and very bitter of soul — as a bear robbed of her cubs in the plain' (2 Samuel 17:8) — counsel crafted to frighten Absalom into delay. The speech works because the LORD is working it: 'the LORD gave charge to efface the good counsel of Ahithophel, so that the LORD might bring the evils upon Absalom' (2 Samuel 17:14) — a kingdom's fate steered through one vivid simile in a council room (Proverbs 21:1).

exceedingly bitter
fierce of soul

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Samuel 17:8 (that they are exceedingly mighty, and their soul is very bitter, as a bear being made childless in the plain).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to trust fully in, confide in (κατά, intensive + πιστεύω, to trust). Micah's collapsed-society advisory: 'do not confide in friends; do not hope in leaders; from her who shares your bed guard the doors of your mouth' (Micah 7:5) — trust rationed to zero as every natural bond turns informer (Micah 7:6, the verse Jesus quotes for the sword His coming brings, Matthew 10:35-36). The prophet's own footing survives the general collapse: 'but I will watch expectantly for the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me' (Micah 7:7) — the one confidence left standing when all the others are compromised (Psalm 118:8-9).

to confide in
to trust fully

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Micah 7:5 (do not confide in friends; do not hope upon leaders; of your bed-mate watch out to not present anything to her).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to plaster over, apply as a poultice (κατά + πλάσσω). Elihu's meteorology — the cloud coating its chosen thing — and the healing sign given for Hezekiah: "take a cake of figs, and plaster it on the boil, and he shall be healthy" — the ordinary means through which the extraordinary promise ran.

to plaster over
to apply a poultice

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Job 37:11 (and a cloud plasters over the chosen thing — his light shall disperse the cloud); Isaiah 38:21 (Isaiah said — "take a cake of dried figs, and grind it, and plaster it on the boil — and he shall be healthy").

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — terror, consternation (κατά + πλήσσω, to strike — struck-down dread). The emotional weather of the altar's rebuilding: 'they prepared the altar upon its base — for terror was upon them because of the peoples of the lands — and they offered whole burnt-offerings on it to the LORD, in the morning and in the evening' (Ezra 3:3). The grammar is the sermon: the fear is real, parenthetical, and overruled; worship resumes inside the dread, altar before walls, sacrifice before safety. Obedience that does not wait for the fear to pass is the returned exiles' first miracle (Psalm 56:3; 2 Timothy 1:7).

terror
consternation

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ezra 3:3 (and they prepared the altar upon its preparation place, for terror was upon them because of the peoples of the lands; and they brought unto it the whole burnt-offerings to the LORD, in the morning and in the evening).

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to strike down with terror, astound utterly (κατά, down + πλήσσω, to strike). The kings west of the Jordan struck with terror at the crossing — and Job's plea that God's dread not so strike him.

to strike with terror
to astound

Septuagint usage

3 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Joshua 5:1 (when all the kings of the Amorites and Canaanites heard that the LORD had dried up the Jordan before the sons of Israel — their hearts melted and they were struck with terror, and there was no spirit left in them); Job 13:21 ("withdraw Your hand far from me — and let not the dread of You strike me with terror").

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to war down, fight against to subdual (κατά + πολεμέω, to make war). Spoken over the five kings at Makkedah, the captains' feet on royal necks: 'do not fear them nor be timid; be manly and be strong — for thus the LORD shall do to all your enemies whom you war against' (Joshua 10:24-25). The tableau is enacted doctrine: today's pinned neck is the pattern of every campaign to come. Scripture keeps the picture and enlarges the referent: 'He must reign until He has put all enemies under His feet' (1 Corinthians 15:25; Psalm 110:1) — and the God of peace crushing Satan under the church's feet shortly (Romans 16:20).

to war against
to fight down

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Joshua 10:25 (you should not fear them nor be timid; be manly and be strong! for thus the LORD shall do to all your enemies whom you make war against).

Noun — a drowning, plunging into the deep (from καταποντίζω, to sink in the sea — Peter's verb, Matthew 14:30). The psalm against Doeg names his weapon-class: 'you loved all the words of drowning, O deceitful tongue' (Psalm 52:4) — speech engineered to take men under; Doeg's one accurate report drowned eighty-five priests of Nob (1 Samuel 22:9-19). Against the drowning-tongue the psalm sets its counter-image: 'but I am as a flourishing olive tree in the house of God; I trusted in the mercy of God forever' (Psalm 52:8; James 3:5-6).

drowning
engulfing

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Psalms 52:4 (you loved all the words of drowning, O deceitful tongue).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to soothe, calm, still (κατά, down + πραΰς, gentle). The stilling-word of Psalm 89 — "You rule the surging of the sea; You soothe the lifting of its waves" — the divine prerogative the Gospels unveil in Christ asleep in the stern. Beside it: the psalmist's plea that God not be soothed into silence, and the patient man who calms a rising quarrel.

to soothe, still
to calm down

Septuagint usage

3 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Psalms 83:1 ("O God, who is like You? Do not keep silence; do not be soothed into stillness, O God" — while the enemies roar); Psalms 89:9 ("You rule the raging of the sea — the lifting of its waves You soothe"); Proverbs 15:18 (a hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but the longsuffering man soothes even the fight that is rising).

(kah-TAP-to-mah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a collapse, fallen breach (κατά + πίπτω, to fall). From the shalom-inventory closing Psalm 144: 'their oxen are thick; there is no collapsed fence, no breaking out, no cry in their streets' (Psalm 144:14) — peace audited by its absences: no breach in the wall, no stampede, no scream. 'Blessed the people for whom it is so — blessed the people whose God is the LORD' (Psalm 144:15): the unbroken fence is the visible edge of an invisible keeping (Psalm 121:7-8; Job 1:10).

collapse
fallen breach

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Psalms 144:14 (their oxen are thick; there is no ruined fence, nor breaking out, nor a cry in their broad spaces).

The courtyard specification: 'all the posts of the court round about plated with silver, their capitals of silver and their bases of brass' (Exodus 27:17). The construction ledger later discloses where that silver came from: the census half-shekels — 'the ransom for his soul' collected head by head (Exodus 30:12-16) — were cast into the sanctuary's sockets and post-fittings (Exodus 38:25-28). The house of God stood wrapped in redemption-money: every gleaming post-top a receipt that the worshipers inside had been ransomed (1 Peter 1:18-19).

καταρράσσω (katarrhassō)

(kah-tar-RAHS-soh)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb from κατά (down) and ῥάσσω (to dash); to dash down, break down.

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to make wander about, send roving (κατά + ῥέμβομαι, to roam). The sentence-summary Moses recites to Reuben and Gad: 'the LORD was provoked to anger over Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation doing evil before the LORD was consumed' (Numbers 32:13) — quoted precisely to warn a new generation against repeating Kadesh ('behold, you have risen in place of your fathers,' Numbers 32:14). The wandering was a verb God did to them: itinerary as judgment (Numbers 14:33-34; Hebrews 3:17) — while even that judgment fed and clothed them for forty years (Deuteronomy 8:2-4).

to make wander
to send roving

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Numbers 32:13 (and he staggered them in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation doing evil before the LORD was completely consumed).

The aleph-line of Lamentations' second acrostic: 'how the Lord darkened the daughter of Zion in his anger! He hurled down from heaven to earth the glory of Israel, and did not remember the footstool of his feet in the day of the wrath of his rage' (Lamentations 2:1) — Zion falling star-like, the ark-footstool itself unremembered (Psalm 132:7). The height of the privilege set the length of the fall (Amos 3:2). The gospel's inversion: the true Glory of Israel descended willingly — 'He emptied Himself' (Philippians 2:6-8) — so that the hurled-down city could be lifted (Isaiah 40:2; Luke 2:32).

to hurl down
to cast headlong

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Lamentations 2:1 (he hurled down from out of heaven unto the earth the glory of Israel, and he remembered not the stool of his feet in the day of the wrath of his rage).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to be silenced, hushed down (κατά + σιγάω, to be silent). The pivot-word of the sailors' dirge: 'Who is as Tyre, silenced in the midst of the sea?' (Ezekiel 27:32) — the loudest port on earth, all oar-song and market-din (Ezekiel 26:13), reduced to one held breath of sea-quiet. Silencing is the signature of God's verdict on commercial arrogance; the last Babylon receives it verbatim: 'the sound of harpists and musicians... shall be heard in you no more, and the voice of bridegroom and bride no more' (Revelation 18:22-23; Isaiah 23:8-9).

to be silenced
to be hushed

The verb of covenant ratification at Sinai: 'and Moses, taking the blood, scattered it upon the people, and said, Behold, the blood of the covenant which the LORD ordained with you concerning all these words' (Exodus 24:8) — half the blood on the altar, half sprayed over the assembled nation (24:6): God and people brought under one blood. This is the sentence the Lord took up at the table — 'this is my blood of the covenant, poured out for many' (Matthew 26:28) — and Hebrews expounds at length: 'not without blood' (Hebrews 9:18-22), the better sprinkling that speaks (Hebrews 12:24).

David's posture inside the covenant just given him: 'and it was made small before you, O my Lord — and you spoke about the house of your servant for a far-distant time; and is this the law of man, O my Lord?' (2 Samuel 7:19) — the everlasting-house promise so exceeding him that even it seems 'a small thing' to the Giver, and David gropes for words: is this the charter for mankind? The astonished question is the point: the promise to David's house was always aimed past David at the Son whose throne is forever (2 Samuel 7:13, 16; Luke 1:32-33) — grace that out-scales its recipient (Ephesians 3:20).

to be made small
to be diminished

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Samuel 7:19 (and it was reduced small before you, O my Lord, O LORD, and you spoke about the house of your servant for a far time; and is this the law of man, O my Lord, O LORD?).

Job on the unfindable God: 'therefore at his face I am sobered; I shall consider, and shall be terrified of him' (Job 23:15) — the same chapter that aches 'O that I knew where I might find him' (23:3) and rests on 'he knows the way that I take; when he has tried me, I shall come forth as gold' (23:10). Job's dread is not the terror of the guilty but the vertigo of a small integrity before an unsummonable Judge — the fear resolved only when the Judge becomes findable: 'whoever has seen me has seen the Father' (John 14:9; Hebrews 4:16).

to be gravely alarmed
to take with utmost seriousness

Septuagint usage

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to be firmly fixed, thoroughly established (κατά + στηρίζω, to fix fast). Zophar's timetable for the wicked: 'whenever he should seem already firmly fixed, then unto the end he shall perish; and the ones knowing him shall say, Where is he?' (Job 20:7) — the apparent permanence is itself the cue for the vanishing. The observation is sound Psalter doctrine even on a friend's misapplied lips: 'I saw the wicked towering as the cedars of Lebanon; I passed by, and behold, he was not' (Psalm 37:35-36; 73:18-20). Fixedness belongs elsewhere: 'the one doing the will of God abides forever' (1 John 2:17).

to be firmly fixed
to seem established

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Job 20:7 (for whenever he should seem already firmly fixed, then unto the end he shall perish; and the ones knowing him shall say, Where is he?).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to drain out drop by drop (κατά + στραγγίζω, to squeeze out). From the poor man's sin-offering rubric: the priest 'shall sprinkle from the blood of the sin offering upon the wall of the altar, but the rest of the blood he shall drain out at the base of the altar — for it is a sin offering' (Leviticus 5:9). Nothing of the blood is discarded or casual: what is not sprinkled is deliberately, completely poured to the altar's foundation — atonement accounted to the last drop (Leviticus 4:7; 17:11). The pattern holds to its fulfillment: 'he poured out his soul unto death' (Isaiah 53:12; John 19:34).

to drain drop by drop
to pour out completely

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Leviticus 5:9 (but the rest of the blood he shall drain out upon the base of the altar — for it is an offering on account of sin).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to encamp, pitch camp (κατά + στρατόπεδον, camp). The landing-report of the crossing: 'the people ascended out of the Jordan on the tenth of the first month, and the sons of Israel encamped in Gilgal, toward the sun's rising from Jericho' (Joshua 4:19) — the date is liturgy: the tenth of the first month is lamb-selection day (Exodus 12:3), and this camp will keep the land's first Passover within the week (Joshua 5:10-12). The twelve stones go up at the same site 'that all the peoples of the earth may know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty' (Joshua 4:20-24) — a campground arranged around remembrance.

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Joshua 4:19 (and the people ascended from out of the Jordan on the tenth of the first month; and the sons of Israel bivouacked in Gilgal, in the part towards the sun rising by Jericho).

Septuagint usage

4 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Leviticus 21:5 (the priests shall not shave their heads nor make gashes in their flesh); 1 Kings 18:28 (the prophets of Baal cried aloud and gashed themselves with swords and lances after their custom, until blood gushed out); Isaiah 15:2 (Moab's wailing — on every head baldness, every beard gashed off); Hosea 7:14 ("they do not cry to Me from their heart, but wail on their beds; they gash themselves for grain and new wine, and turn away from Me").

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to delight oneself utterly (κατά, intensive + τέρπομαι, to delight). The commanded joy of Zephaniah's finale: 'Rejoice, O daughter of Zion! Proclaim aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem! Be glad and delight yourself with your whole heart!' (Zephaniah 3:14) — a fourfold summons stacked past redundancy, because the news warrants it: judgments removed, the King of Israel in her midst (3:15). Three verses on, the joy is answered in kind and exceeded: 'the LORD your God... will rejoice over you with gladness; he will exult over you with singing' (Zephaniah 3:17) — Zion's whole-hearted delight the echo of God's own (Isaiah 62:5; Luke 15:32).

For I will make your horns iron and your hoofs brass, and you shall melt down many peoples — and you shall devote their abundance to the LORD, their strength to the Lord of all the earth' (Micah 4:13). The startling grammar: the trampled daughter (4:11, 'let our eye gloat over Zion') is re-equipped as the thresher, and the spoil is not kept but devoted — ḥerem to the Lord of all the earth. Victory in Zion's story always ends at the altar, not the treasury (Psalm 68:18, 29; Revelation 21:24).

to melt down
to dissolve

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Micah 4:13 (for I will make your horns iron, and your hoofs I will make brass, and you shall dissolve many peoples; and you shall present their abundance to the LORD, even their strength to the Lord of all the earth).

Definition

The cup 'deep and wide' (23:32) is Scripture's fixed image for wrath measured out (Psalm 75:8; Jeremiah 25:15-17) — the cup another asked to pass from Him, and drank instead: 'shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?' (Matthew 26:42; John 18:11).

to pluck at
to tear repeatedly

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ezekiel 23:34 (and you shall drink it and strain it out, and his potsherds you shall devour, and your breasts you shall pull about; for I have spoken, says Adonai the LORD).
