προσαχέω

Form 1

Part of speech: verb

Related lemmas: ἠχέω

Sense 1: to resound

Semantic entry: 14.81

Semantic domains: Physical Events and States

Subdomains: Sound

Definition: (an alternative form of προσηχέω, not occurring in the NT) to reflect back a sound

Notes: προσαχέω occurs only in the first hand of the Vaticanus manuscript of RV ACT 27:27 · LV ACT 27:27 · Read together ACT 27:27, where the best textual authorities read προσάγειν in the phrase ὑπενόουν οἱ ναῦται προσάγειν τινὰ αὐτοῖς χώραν ‘the sailors suspected that they were getting close to land.’ With the verb προσαχεῖν the meaning would be ‘the sailors suspected that there was an echoing sound coming from the land.’
