         DefinitionShort: (a figurative extension of meaning of {L:ἐδαφίζω}[a] ‘to raze, to tear down,’ {D:20.57}) to destroy or kill a population

         Glosses: to kill

         Comments: The verb {L:ἐδαφίζω} in relationship to the pronoun σε (referring to Jerusalem) means ‘to raze to the ground’ (see {D:20.57}), but in reference to τὰ τέκνα σου ἐν σοί the meaning is ‘to kill.’ Accordingly, {L:ἐδαφίζω} must be regarded as having two different meanings within the same context: (1) ‘to raze to the ground’ and (2) ‘to kill.’
