         Comments: It is possible to interpret πατέω in {S:04201001900014} as meaning ‘to trample,’ with emphasis upon the impact of the feet upon the snakes (see {D:19.51}). It is important in rendering {S:04201001900014} not to give the impression that someone is to merely walk on a mass of snakes; this is simply a matter of accidentally stepping on a poisonous snake or scorpion.

         Comments: The occurrence of πατέω in the figurative context of {S:06601901500048} is based upon the practice of persons squeezing out the juice from grapes by trampling on the grapes in a large vat or container which had an opening at the bottom through which the grape juice could flow.
