G5402.1

φοινικοῦς (phoinikous)

(fee-nee-KOOSS)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Adjective — crimson, purple-red (the dye-color of Phoenicia; the ABP files it on the Φοίβη slot by numbering only). The great arraignment turned invitation: 'Come, let us reason together, says the LORD: if your sins be as crimson, I shall whiten them as snow; if as scarlet, I shall whiten them as wool' (Isaiah 1:18). Crimson was the fast dye — the stain technology could not wash out — chosen precisely so the offer would be measured against the impossible (Jeremiah 2:22; 13:23). The whitening is not amnesty by decree but exchange by blood: the Servant bears the stain (Isaiah 53:5-6), and the robes come out white precisely by being 'washed in the blood of the Lamb' (Revelation 7:14; Psalm 51:7; 1 John 1:7).

crimson
purple-red

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Isaiah 1:18 (and come, we should plead together, says the LORD; and if your sins should be as crimson, as snow I shall whiten them, and if they should be as scarlet, as wool I shall whiten them).

(fo-nev-TEES)

Masculine noun from φονεύω (G5407, to murder), sibling of φονεύς (G5406, murderer); a slayer, manslayer — the technical term of the cities-of-refuge legislation, distinguishing the murderer from the manslayer who struck without intent.

manslayer, murderer

Septuagint usage

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to pollute with murder, defile by bloodshed (φόνος, murder + κτείνω, to slay). The blood-pollution word of Numbers 35 — innocent blood defiles the land itself, and no atonement avails but the blood of the shedder — fulfilled in the psalm's grim history of child-sacrifice.

to pollute with murder
to defile with blood

Septuagint usage

3 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Numbers 35:33 ("you shall not pollute with murder the land in which you live — for this blood pollutes the land, and the land shall not be atoned for the blood shed on it except by the blood of him who shed it"); Psalms 106:38 (they poured out innocent blood — the blood of their sons and daughters whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan — and the land was polluted with murder in their blood).

For the Septuagint (ABP) words at this number, see G5408.1–G5408.2 below.

G5408.1

φορβεά (phorbea)

(for-veh-AH)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — halter, muzzle-band (the aulete's mouth-strap lent to tackle; the ABP files it on the φόνος slot by numbering only). The Leviathan interrogation's opening taunt: 'Will you lead the dragon with a hook, and put a halter around his nose? ... Will he make covenant with you, and will you take him as a perpetual servant?' (Job 41:1-4). The halter is domestication's emblem, and the argument is a fortiori: the creature you cannot bridle serves a Master who can — 'everything under heaven is mine' (Job 41:11). Scripture's later hooks answer the taunt from God's side: Gog turned with hooks in the jaws (Ezekiel 38:4), the dragon of Egypt hauled up (Ezekiel 29:3-4), and the old serpent himself seized, bound, and penned (Revelation 20:1-3).

halter
muzzle-band

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Job 41:1 (and shall you lead the dragon by a hook, and put a halter around his nose?).

carriage

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Genesis 45:17 (Pharaoh said to Joseph — "say to your brothers, Fill your carriages and go forth into the land of Canaan, and take your father and your possessions, and come to me"); Song of Solomon 3:9 (king Solomon made himself a carriage from the timbers of Lebanon — its posts silver, its base gold, its seat purple).

G5409.1

φορθομμιν (phorthommin)

(for-thom-MEEN)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Persian loanword (via Hebrew partemim) — nobles, aristocrats; the ABP transliterates the court-term (the slot sits beside φορέω by numbering only). The deportation draft: Ashpenaz ordered to select 'from the sons of the captivity of Israel, from the seed of royalty, and from the nobles' — youths without blemish, skilled in wisdom, for the king's palace and the Chaldean curriculum (Daniel 1:3-4). Babylon takes the best on purpose: assimilation targets the elite. The loanword's other appearances belong to Persia's own grandees (Esther 1:3; 6:9) — and the captive nobles outperform the empire's: Daniel purposed in his heart (Daniel 1:8), and stood before kings until the third kingdom fell (Daniel 1:21; 6:28; Proverbs 22:29).

nobles
partemim (Persian loanword)

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Daniel 1:3 (and the king told Ashpenaz his chief eunuch to bring in some from the sons of the captivity of Israel, and from the seed of royalty, and from the nobles).

φορολογητός (phorologētos)

(fo-ro-lo-ghee-TOSS)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verbal adjective — subject to tribute-collection (φόρος, tribute, + λέγω/λογέω, to collect; the ABP files it on the φορέω slot by numbering only). The siege-law's peace clause: proclaim peace first, and if the city opens, 'all the people found in it shall be tributaries to you, and subject to you' (Deuteronomy 20:10-11) — terms before trumpets, mercy codified into the war-manual for the cities outside the land (Deuteronomy 20:15). The offered-peace pattern is the LORD's own diplomacy: kiss the Son, submit, and live (Psalm 2:10-12); the gospel likewise arrives as terms of peace ahead of the siege (Luke 14:31-32; 2 Corinthians 5:20 — 'be reconciled to God').

tributary
subject to levy

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Deuteronomy 20:11 (and it shall be, if they should peaceably answer you and open to you, that all the people found in it shall be to you tributaries, and subjects to you).

The shudder is God's own aesthetic response to covenant treachery (Jeremiah 2:12 — 'be appalled, O heavens'); the same chapter opened with the healing offer the horror refuses: 'come, let us return... on the third day he will raise us up' (Hosea 6:1-2).

- of the time (of night) during which guard was kept, a watch i.e., a period of time during which part of the guard was on duty, and at the end of which others relieved them

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a keeper, guardian (feminine; from φυλάσσω, to guard; kin of the base φυλακίζω). The bride's opening confession: sunburnt, quarreled-over, conscripted — 'my mother's sons contended with me; they made me keeper in the vineyards; my own vineyard I have not kept' (Song of Solomon 1:6). The overworked keeper who could not keep herself is the Song's honest starting point, and the canon's: the appointed guardians fail their own plot (Genesis 3:6; Romans 2:21). Grace answers in the vineyard's other keeper-text: 'I the LORD am its keeper; I water it every moment; night and day I keep it' (Isaiah 27:2-3) — the beloved is beautiful at last because the Keeper never slumbers (Psalm 121:4-5; Song 4:7).

a case containing Scripture verses worn on the body
a fortified place provided with a garrison, a station for a guard or garrison

Note

The Jews used this word to describe small strips of parchment on which were written the following passages of the law of Moses: Exodus 13:1–10, 11–16; Deuteronomy 6:4–9, 11:13–21. Those parchments were then enclosed in small cases, and it was customary when engaged in prayer to wear them fastened by a leather strap to the forehead and to the left arm over against the heart, in order that they might thus be solemnly reminded of the duty of keeping the commands of God in the head and in the heart, according to the directions given in Exodus 13:16, Deuteronomy 6:8, 11:18. These scrolls were thought to have the power, like amulets, to avert various evils and to drive away demons. The Pharisees were known to widen (make broad) their phylacteries so that they might render them more conspicuous and show themselves to be more eager than the majority to be reminded of the law of God.

Moses' final convocation-order: 'Assemble to me your tribal chiefs, and your elders, and your judicial recorders, that I may speak all these words into their ears — and I call heaven and earth to testify against them' (Deuteronomy 31:28). The command structure is summoned to hear the Song of Moses (Deuteronomy 32) precisely because apostasy is foreseen (Deuteronomy 31:29): leaders are made witnesses in advance, so that the covenant lawsuit will have no missing signatures. Heaven and earth take the stand again when the case is called (Isaiah 1:2; Micah 6:1-2) — and officers of the flock remain answerable to the Chief Shepherd (Hebrews 13:17; 1 Peter 5:2-4).

tribal chief
phylarch

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Deuteronomy 31:28 (hold an assembly for me of your tribal chiefs, and your elders, and your judicial recorders, that I should speak into their ears all these words; and I call to testify to them both the heaven and the earth).

φύρασις (phyrasis)

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a kneading, mixing of dough (from φυράω, to knead; kin of the base φύραμα, the NT's 'lump'). Hosea's bakery of lust: 'all of them adulterers — as an oven burning for baking; from the kneading of the dough the baker rests until it is wholly leavened' (Hosea 7:4), the fire banked overnight and roaring by morning (Hosea 7:6-7). Passion managed, not mortified: sin timed like a proof-cycle, kings falling to it by breakfast. The leaven-figure carries the diagnosis into the NT — 'a little leaven leavens the whole lump; purge out the old leaven' (1 Corinthians 5:6-8; Galatians 5:9) — and the alternative fire is Pentecost's, kindled on watchers, not smolderers (Luke 12:35-37; Acts 2:3).

kneading
dough-mixing

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Hosea 7:4 (all committing adultery are as an oven burning for baking — burning from the flame, from the mixing together of the dough until its being wholly leavened).

G5445.3

φυρμός (phyrmos)

(feer-MOSS)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a mixing-up, disorder, befoulment (from φυράω, to knead together; kin of the base φύραμα by stock). From the sword-song's sentence on Jerusalem: 'they shall produce disorder, because the land is full of judgments of blood, and the city full of lawlessness; and I will bring the evil ones of the nations, and they shall inherit their houses' (Ezekiel 7:23 — where the MT commands 'make the chain,' the LXX names the result: everything kneaded into chaos). Blood-verdicts in the courts churn the whole loaf: when justice is mixed, society is (Isaiah 59:14-15). The un-mixing belongs to the coming King who 'shall not judge by what his eyes see' (Isaiah 11:3-4) — order restored from the bench outward (Jeremiah 23:5).

disorder
befoulment

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ezekiel 7:23 (and they shall produce befouling, because the land is full of judgments of blood, and the city full of lawlessness; and I will bring evils of nations, and they shall inherit their houses).

φύρω (phyrō)

(FEE-roh)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb (the root of φύραμα, G5445, the kneaded lump of dough — "cleanse out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump," 1 Corinthians 5:7); to mix, knead — hence to befoul, wallow. Its unforgettable frame is Ezekiel 16:6: the foundling child "befouled in your blood" — over whom the passing LORD speaks life: "In your blood, live."

to mix, knead
to befoul; (passive) to wallow, welter

Septuagint usage

7 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Ezekiel 16:6 (I passed by you and saw you befouled in your blood — and I said to you, In your blood, live); 2 Samuel 20:12 (Amasa weltering in blood in the middle of the highway); Job 7:5 (my body is clothed with worms, my skin befouled with clods of dust); Ezekiel 16:22 (you did not remember the days of your infancy, when you were naked and befouled in your blood).

G5445.5

φυσάω (physaō)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to blow, work the bellows (from φῦσα, bellows; the ABP files it on the φύραμα slot by numbering only). The security-clause behind 'no weapon formed': 'Behold, I created the smith who blows on the fire of coals and brings forth a tool for his work; and I created the destroyer to destroy' (Isaiah 54:16) — the LORD claims the arms industry at the bellows-level, so the guarantee of the next verse is total: every weapon traced to a forge He owns, every forge to a maker He made. The servants of the LORD stand behind that chain of custody: 'no weapon fabricated against you shall prosper... this is the inheritance of the servants of the LORD' (Isaiah 54:17; Romans 8:31-34).

to blow (bellows)
to fan a fire

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Isaiah 54:16 (behold, I created you — not as a brazier blowing in a fire of coals and bringing forth a utensil for work; but I created you not for destruction, to corrupt).

G5445.6

φυσητήρ (physētēr)

(fee-see-TEER)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a bellows (from φυσάω, to blow). Elihu's chest is 'as a bellows' bursting with unspoken words; in Jeremiah the smelter's bellows fail over Israel — the lead is consumed, the refining is in vain, for the wicked are not drawn off. The refiner's fire that finds no silver.

bellows

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Job 32:19 (my belly is as a skin of sweet new wine, bound and seething — or as a metalworker's bellows bursting); Jeremiah 6:29 (the bellows failed from the fire; the lead failed — in vain the silversmith works silver; their wickedness did not melt away).

Verb — to catch in the act, detect (from φώρ, thief — literally to catch a thief; the ABP files it on the φωνή slot by numbering only). The prank-defense proverb: like a madman throwing firebrands and arrows 'are all who lie in ambush for their own friends — and whenever they are caught in the act, they say, I was only playing' (Proverbs 26:18-19). The alibi of humor: malice retro-labeled as jest the moment detection lands. Scripture refuses the re-labeling — deadly things are named by their payload, not their packaging (Proverbs 26:23-26: burning lips and a wicked heart, hatred covered by deceit, 'exposed in the assembly'). Every hidden work comes to judgment's light regardless of its costume (Ecclesiastes 12:14; Luke 12:2-3; Ephesians 5:11-13).

to catch in the act
to detect

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Proverbs 26:19 (thus are all the ones lying in wait for their own friends; and whenever they should be caught in the act, they say, In playing I acted).

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to gape, open the mouth wide (aorist ἔχανον). Two opened mouths face each other across the canon: the earth that 'gaped wide her mouth' to receive Abel's blood from Cain's hand, and the prophet commanded to gape wide his mouth and eat what God gives — the scroll. One mouth opened by murder, one for the word.

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Chronicles 3:5 (the great house he boarded with cedar wood, and gilded with pure gold — and he carved upon it palms and chainwork); 2 Chronicles 3:16 (he made chainwork in the dabir, and put it upon the heads of the pillars — and he made a hundred pomegranates and put them on the chainwork).

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — galbanum, a pungent gum-resin (a Semitic loanword in Greek, Hebrew chelbenah; the ABP files it on the χαλάω slot by numbering only). The incense formula: 'Take spices — oil of myrrh, and onycha, and galbanum of sweetening, and transparent frankincense, equal to equal' (Exodus 30:34) — salted, pure, holy, ground fine and set before the testimony; private replication a capital offense (Exodus 30:35-38). Galbanum alone is bitter-sharp; compounded, it fixes and deepens the sweetness — the perfumer's craft folding pungency into fragrance. The incense is prayer's appointed picture (Psalm 141:2), rising mixed and mediated (Revelation 8:3-4 — 'much incense... with the prayers of all the saints'), and holy to one altar only (John 14:6).

galbanum
gum-resin spice

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Exodus 30:34 (and the LORD said to Moses, Take to yourself spices — balsam, and onycha, and luscious galbanum, and transparent frankincense; equal to equal it will be).

χαλκεύω (chalkeuō)

(khal-KEV-o)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to forge, work metal (from χαλκεύς, smith).

On battle day only Saul and Jonathan carried sword or spear (1 Samuel 13:22) — which is precisely the stage for Jonathan's creed: 'nothing restrains the LORD from saving by many or by few' (1 Samuel 14:6). The LORD's deliverances are habitually tool-poor: an ox-goad, a jawbone, a sling (Judges 3:31; 15:15; 1 Samuel 17:47, 50).

to forge
to smith

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 1 Samuel 13:20 (and all Israel went down into the land of the Philistines, each to forge his own reaping hook, and his utensil, and each his axe, and his sickle).

(khah-rah-ko-vo-LEE-ah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — the throwing up of a palisade, siege-entrenchment (χάραξ, stake-rampart, + βάλλω, to throw; kin of the base χάραγμα by stock — both from engraving/stake-cutting). From the two-eagles parable's decoding: Zedekiah broke his sworn covenant with Babylon and leaned on Egypt, but 'not with great power nor with a great multitude shall Pharaoh make war for him, with the throwing up of a palisade and the building of artillery-stands, to remove many souls' (Ezekiel 17:15-17). The oath was sworn in the LORD's name even though to a pagan king — so its breach is His case: 'my oath that he despised... I will bring it upon his head' (Ezekiel 17:19). The chapter ends past all siege-works: the LORD Himself plants the tender twig on the high mountain, and every tree knows who fells and who exalts (Ezekiel 17:22-24; Matthew 13:31-32).

palisade-raising
siege-works

Septuagint usage

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to palisade, fence with stakes (from χάραξ, palisade).

to palisade
to stake around

Septuagint usage

2 occurrences in the LXX Reference interlinear: Isaiah 5:2 (I put a hedge around it, and built a palisade, and planted a choice grapevine — and built a tower in its midst, and hewed out a wine vat in it); Jeremiah 32:2 (then the force of the king of Babylon built a palisade against Jerusalem — and Jeremiah was being kept in the courtyard of the guard).

(khah-RAH-ko-siss)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a palisading, siege-mound, entrenchment (from χάραξ, stake — the word of Luke 19:43's embankment; kin of the base χαρακτήρ by stock, both from engraving). The tree-sparing war-statute: fruit trees may not be axed for siege-works — 'is the tree of the field a man, to enter before you into the siege?' — 'but the tree you know is not fruit-bearing, this you shall cut, and shall build a siege-mound against the city making war with you' (Deuteronomy 20:19-20). Even wrath under law distinguishes: the orchard outlives the campaign, because war is not license and creation is not combatant. The restraint written here measures the horror of its violation (2 Kings 3:19, 25) — and the mercy of the Judge who 'will not break a bruised reed' (Isaiah 42:3).

siege-mound
palisading

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Deuteronomy 20:20 (but the tree which you know is not fruit-bearing, this you shall annihilate, and you shall cut it, and shall build a siege mound at the city, whichever makes war against you, until it should be delivered up).

G5482

Verb — to engrave, incise, grave images (the parent verb of χάραγμα, the graven mark; kin of the base χάραξ). From the great obituary of the northern kingdom: they burned incense on all the high places like the expelled nations, 'and they made partners, and they graved images, to provoke the LORD to anger' (2 Kings 17:11) — the chapter's long indictment ending in exile (2 Kings 17:18, 23). Israel's hands engraved provocations; the LORD's hands engrave the opposite: 'Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are continually before me' (Isaiah 49:16). Two gravings contend for every heart — idols cut into stone, or the law written on it by the Spirit, tablets of flesh (2 Corinthians 3:3; Jeremiah 31:33).

to engrave
to grave images

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: 2 Kings 17:11 (and they burned incense there in all the high places, as the nations which the LORD moved far away from their face; and they made partners, and they graved images to provoke the LORD to anger).

From Judah's blessing, on the far side of Shiloh and the vine-tethered colt and the garments washed in the blood of grapes: 'his eyes gladdening from wine, and his teeth whiter than milk' (Genesis 49:10-12). The oracle paints the coming ruler's realm as vintage-abundance so lavish that wine is wash-water — and the ruler himself as joy embodied: eyes that make glad. The banquet-notes carry forward to wine that gladdens the heart (Psalm 104:15), the mountain-feast of aged wine (Isaiah 25:6), and the wedding at Cana where Judah's Lion quietly signed the oracle in six stone jars (John 2:9-11).

gladdening (of eyes)

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Genesis 49:12 (his eyes causing joy from wine, and the white of his teeth whiter than milk).

χαυών (chauōn)

(khah-VON)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Transliterated Hebrew noun — kawwan, a sacrificial cake (Hebrew כַּוָּן), the pressed cakes of the queen-of-heaven cult. Both occurrences are Jeremiah's: the whole family enlisted — children gathering wood, fathers kindling fire, women kneading dough — 'to make cakes for the queen of heaven,' and the exiles' defiant vow to keep doing it.

χαφουρή (chaphourē)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Hebrew loanword — kephorei, bowls, basins (Hebrew kephor; the ABP transliterates the treasury-term; the slot sits beside χάσμα by numbering only). From Ezra's freight-manifest at the Ahava canal: 'twenty bowls of gold worth a thousand drachmas, and vessels of shining fine bronze, desirable as gold' — weighed into the hands of twelve priests with the charge, 'you are holy to the LORD, and the vessels are holy... watch and keep them until you weigh them out at Jerusalem' (Ezra 8:26-29). Sacred logistics: value counted, custody consecrated, the audit repeated on arrival (Ezra 8:33-34). The same Hebrew word's Greek cousin appears in the first return's manifest (Ezra 1:10) — holy things travel with receipts, and stewards are weighed with their cargo (1 Corinthians 4:2).

bowls
kephorei (Hebrew loanword)

G5500.1

χειροτονία (cheirotonia)

(khee-ro-to-NEE-ah)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Noun — a stretching forth of the hand; here the accusing finger-thrust (χείρ, hand, + τείνω, to stretch; the noun of the base χειροτονέω, whose NT sense is appointment by outstretched hand, Acts 14:23; 2 Corinthians 8:19). The fast the LORD honors, final clauses: 'Then you shall cry, and the LORD will hearken; while you are yet speaking he shall say, Behold, I am here — if you remove from yourself the bond, and the stretching forth of the hand, and the grumbling word' (Isaiah 58:9; the MT names it 'the pointing of the finger'). The same hand-gesture divides two religions: stretched out to accuse and goad, or opened to the hungry (Isaiah 58:7, 10). Un-point the finger and the light rises in the darkness — the promise's speed is its wonder: 'while you are yet speaking' (Isaiah 65:24; Romans 8:33-34: who shall point at God's elect?).

finger-pointing
hand-thrust

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Isaiah 58:9 (then you shall yell, and the LORD shall hearken to you; while you are speaking he shall say, Behold, I am at hand — if you remove from yourself conspiracy, and stretching forth of the hands, and grumbling discourse).

G5500.2

χειρόομαι (cheiroomai)

(khee-RO-o-meh)

Definition

Septuagint (Apostolic Bible Polyglot) extension number — a Greek OT word absent from the NT Strong's list. Verb — to lay hands on, overpower, subdue (from χείρ, hand; the ABP files it on the χειροτονέω slot by numbering only). The summit of Job's defiant faith as the LXX gives it: 'Though the Mighty One lay hands on me — since he has already begun — surely I shall speak and argue my case before him' (Job 13:15; the famous Hebrew reads 'though he slay me, yet will I hope in him'). Both texts stake everything on approaching the very God whose hand is heavy: 'he also shall be my salvation, for no godless man comes before him' (Job 13:16 — the line Paul echoes at Philippians 1:19). Faith of this grade does not survive despite the overpowering hand but by appeal to it (Genesis 32:26-28; Lamentations 3:31-33) — argued at last by an Advocate who was Himself delivered into hands (Matthew 17:22; 1 John 2:1).

to lay hands on
to overpower

Septuagint usage

1 occurrence in the LXX Reference interlinear: Job 13:15 (though the mighty one should lay hands against me — since even he begins — in fact I shall speak and reprove before him).
