         DefinitionShort: to cause something to become white

         Glosses: ['to make white', 'to whiten']

         Comments: This statement in {S:06600701400052} may raise numerous difficulties for receptors, since blood would not be regarded as an instrument for making anything white. It may be necessary, therefore, to introduce a marginal note explaining the figurative language and suggesting the rendering ‘to make them pure.’
