        DefinitionShort: to kneel down before, with the implication of an act of reverence or of supplication

        Glosses: ['to kneel down', 'to kneel']

        Comments: In a number of cultures, kneeling does not imply either reverence or an act of supplication. In some instances translators have used a functional substitute involving a similar type of stance, namely, ‘to bow low before,’ but it may be necessary to use a more or less literal description of ‘kneeling before’ and then to place in a marginal note an indication of the implications of such an act.
