         DefinitionShort: to show reverent regard for

         Glosses: ['to reverence', 'reverent regard for', 'reverence']

         Comments: In {L:εὐλαβέομαι}[a] and εὐλάβεια there is also a certain element of awe, which may be interpreted in some instances as implying even fear. The implication of such reverent fear or awe is, of course, obedience, and some scholars prefer to interpret these terms in {S:05801100700016} and {S:05800500700058} as meaning ‘to obey’ (see {D:36.13}) or ‘obedience.’
