DefinitionShort: to suffer paralysis in one or more limbs, especially in the leg or foot
Glosses: ['to be paralyzed', 'to be lame']
Comments: In {S:05801201200014} παραλύομαι occurs in a highly figurative context: τὰ παραλελυμένα γόνατα ἀνορθώσατε ‘straighten up the paralyzed knees.’ It is often better in this context to speak of ‘strengthening the weak knees,’ but in any event, the reference to the physical situation of the individual is merely a way of speaking about a psychological state (see {D:25.152}).
