    Comments: It is possible that προλαμβάνω in {S:04800600100008} refers to actual seizing or arresting, but it seems more likely to refer to the fact that someone becomes aware of wrongdoing, and therefore the wrongdoer is surprised by being detected or discovered. It is, of course, also possible to render προλαμβάνω in {S:04800600100008} as ‘to be involved in.’ Compare Domain 90K.
