    DefinitionShort: pertaining to being under obligation imposed by law
    Glosses: ['subject to law', 'under law']
    Comments: In some languages there is a difficulty involved in rendering ἔννομος by a phrase such as ‘under law,’ since this may be understood in a sense of ‘beneath the law’ or ‘illegal.’ A more common expression would be ‘tied to the law’ or ‘obligated by the law.’
