        DefinitionShort: (figurative extension of meaning of term meaning literally ‘to hunt,’ ‘to trap,’ not occurring in the NT) to acquire information about an error or fault, with the purpose of causing harm or trouble

        Glosses: ['to trap', 'to catch off guard', 'to catch in a mistake']

        Comments: In a number of languages it is possible to retain the figurative meaning of ‘trap’ or ‘catch,’ but in a number of instances other figures are used, for example, ‘to cause to trip,’ ‘to cause to fall,’ ‘to hear wrong words from his mouth,’ or ‘to use his words against him.’
