Definition

Verb — to set in the first rank, prefer before (πρό, before, + ἀνατάσσομαι, to arrange; the slot sits beside προαμαρτάνω by numbering only). The exile's self-imposed oath by the rivers of Babylon: 'let my tongue cleave to my throat if I do not remember you, if I do not set Jerusalem at the head of my gladness' (Psalm 137:5-6). Joy is ranked, deliberately — the city of God filed above every other happiness, on pain of silence.

Shall not its tender roots and fruit rot, and all its early shoots be dried up?' (Ezekiel 17:9). Covenant-breaking withers from the shoot down. But the same parable ends with the LORD's own planting: a tender twig from the high cedar, set on the mountain height of Israel, under which every bird will dwell (Ezekiel 17:22-24) — the sprig the Gospels name a mustard seed become a tree (Matthew 13:32).
- to sprout early

The watchman's charge in its second telling: 'if you forewarn the impious to turn from his way, and he does not turn, he shall die in his impiety — but you have rescued your own soul' (Ezekiel 33:8-9). The warner is not measured by the outcome but by the warning; blood is on the silent, not the unheeded. Paul closes his Ephesian ministry in exactly this idiom — 'I am innocent of the blood of all, for I did not shrink from declaring the whole counsel of God' (Acts 20:26-27, 31).
