         DefinitionShort: to engage in an intense struggle against something or someone

         Glosses: to struggle against

         Comments: In a number of languages one cannot use a term in {S:05801200400016} which would suggest physical struggle, for essentially this is psychological opposition. In some cases the appropriate equivalent would be ‘to do all you can to oppose sin’ or ‘to do everything possible against evil.’
