         DefinitionShort: to provide benefits, often with the implication of certain supernatural factors involved

         Glosses: ['to act kindly toward', 'to bless']

         Comments: In {S:04900100300024} there is an obvious play on the words {L:εὐλογητός} and εὐλογήσας. The term {L:εὐλογητός} designates ‘the one to be praised’ (see {D:33.362}), but εὐλογήσας designates ‘blessing.’
