DefinitionShort: to release or set free, with the implied analogy to the process of freeing a slave{N:001}
Glosses: ['to set free', 'to liberate', 'to deliver', 'liberation', 'deliverance']
Comments: In a number of languages one cannot speak of ‘being set free’ without specifying the particular manner or circumstances involved. In the case of {S:04202402100018}, for example, it may be necessary to translate ‘to liberate Israel’ as ‘to cause Israel to be free from foreign control’ or ‘… from the power of Rome.’ A similar type of translation may be required in {S:04200203800032}, but in the case of {S:04900100700010} it may be necessary to specify ‘we are set free from sin’ or ‘we are set free from our bad desires.’
