DefinitionShort: to promise a person for marriage
Glosses: ['to be engaged', 'to be promised in marriage']
Comments: It may be important to note in the margin of a text that in biblical times the act of betrothal was regarded as binding, so that the breaking of a betrothal was legally equivalent to divorce.
