προσπίπτω

Strong’s: G4363

Associated OET lemmas: προσπίπτω

Notes: πίπτω[c] and προσπίπτω[a] (17.22: πίπτω / 17.22: προσπίπτω) differ to some extent from προσκυνέω[b] (17.21: κλίνω / 17.21: προσκυνέω) in that they focus primarily upon the actual position rather than upon the intent of showing reverence or making supplication. προσκυνέω[b] is the more formal term and focuses more upon the attitude of reverence or honor.

Form 1

Part of speech: verb

Inflections: προσπίπτω; aor.; προσέπεσον; προσπίπτω; fem.ptc.; προσπεσοῦσα

Related lemmas: πίπτω

Sense 1: to prostrate oneself before, to fall down before

Semantic entry: 17.22

Semantic domains: Stances and Events Related to Stances

Subdomains: Prostrate as an Act of Reverence or Supplication

Definition: to prostrate oneself before someone, implying supplication{N:001}

Notes: A strictly literal translation of προσπίπτω[a] or πίπτω[c], namely, ‘to fall down before,’ can be entirely misleading in that it may suggest an accident caused by stumbling or tripping. It may therefore be necessary in a number of languages to translate ‘to bow down low before’ or ‘to bow down to the ground before.’
