         DefinitionShort: (figurative extension of meaning of πλανάω ‘to cause to wander off the path,’ not occurring in the NT) to cause someone to hold a wrong view and thus be mistaken{N:001}

         Glosses: ['to mislead', 'to deceive', 'deception', 'to cause to be mistaken']

         Comments: To mislead people as to proper views which they should have may often be expressed idiomatically, for example, ‘to twist people’s thoughts,’ ‘to cause what is false to seem like what is true,’ ‘to make a lie appear true,’ ‘to dig away the truth,’ or ‘to cover the eyes with lies.’

         DefinitionShort: to no longer believe what is true, but to start believing what is false{N:002}

         Glosses: ['to stray from the truth', 'to wander from the truth', 'to go astray from']

         Comments: Though in some languages one can preserve the figurative meaning of ‘to wander’ or ‘to go astray’ in connection with truth, it is not possible to do so in many languages, and therefore it may be necessary to spell out in some detail precisely what is involved, for example, ‘to stop believing what is true and to start believing what is false.’
