         DefinitionShort: to pour out an offering as an act of worship or ritual observance

         Glosses: ['to pour a libation', 'to pour out an offering']

         Comments: In some languages it may be almost meaningless to speak of ‘a person being poured out,’ and therefore it may be more appropriate to translate this expression in {S:05000201700008} as ‘but if my blood is to be poured out upon the sacrifice.’ In {S:05000201700008} and in {S:05500400600008} (the other occurrence of σπένδω in the NT), the contexts are highly figurative.
