    DefinitionShort: to change one’s belief, with focus upon that to which one turns
    Glosses: ['to turn to', 'to come to believe', 'to come to accept']
    Comments: In analyzing the meaning of στρέφω[g], {L:ἐπιστρέφω}[b], and {L:ἐπιστροφή}[a] in such passages as {S:04001800300016}, {S:04301204000040}, and {S:04400703900024}, it is difficult to determine the extent to which belief or behavior is primarily in focus. In the case of {S:06000202500014}, one could certainly argue that the emphasis is upon the interpersonal relationship. It is therefore essential in rendering these terms not to narrow the meaning too much, for in this way one would certainly do violence to certain crucial semantic features.|For another interpretation of στρέφομαι in {S:04001800300016}, see {D:41.50}.
