        DefinitionShort: to change to a state of poverty{N:001}

        Glosses: to become poor

        Comments: In some languages it may be inappropriate to translate literally ‘rich’ and ‘poor,’ since these may have highly specific meanings and inappropriate connotations for the context of {S:04700800900026}. Therefore, it may be necessary to translate ‘although Christ had previously possessed very much, he became one who possessed nothing and he did this for your sake.’
