         DefinitionShort: (an idiom, literally: to be restricted in the bowels) to restrict one’s affection for someone

         Glosses: ['to not respond with affection to someone', 'to close one’s heart to']

         Comments: In {S:04700601200010} it is also possible to understand στενοχωρέομαι as meaning ‘to live with severe restrictions’ (see {D:37.18}), and σπλάγχνα may be interpreted as a psychological faculty of intent and feeling (see {D:26.11}).
