         DefinitionShort: (derivative of {L:δαιμόνιον}[a] ‘demon,’ {D:12.37}) to be possessed by a demon

         Glosses: to be demon possessed

         Comments: In a number of languages one cannot speak of a person ‘being possessed by a demon.’ A more appropriate expression may be ‘the person possesses a demon.’ In other instances an idiomatic phrase is employed, ‘the demon rides the person’ or ‘the demon commands the person’ or even ‘the demon is the person.’
