         Comments: In a number of languages the equivalent of ἀπογράφω is simply ‘to have one’s name put in a book’ or ‘to have one’s name put in a list of those living in a particular place.’|In {S:05801202300008} (καὶ ἐκκλησίᾳ πρωτοτόκων ἀπογεγραμμένων ἐν οὐρανοῖς ‘and at the gathering of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven’) ἀπογράφω is used in a figurative sense, but it is usually translated more or less literally.
