Notes: {'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'It is possible that ἀπολύω[c] is somewhat more emphatic in meaning than λύω[b] in view of the prepositional prefix ἀπο, but NT contexts are not sufficient to indicate any precise degree of distinction. The same possible distinction also applies to the meanings in {D:37.128}.'}

        DefinitionShort: to release or set free, with the implied analogy to the process of freeing a slave{N:001}

        Glosses: ['to set free', 'to liberate', 'to deliver', 'liberation', 'deliverance']

        Comments: In a number of languages one cannot speak of ‘being set free’ without specifying the particular manner or circumstances involved. In the case of {S:04202402100018}, for example, it may be necessary to translate ‘to liberate Israel’ as ‘to cause Israel to be free from foreign control’ or ‘… from the power of Rome.’ A similar type of translation may be required in {S:04200203800032}, but in the case of {S:04900100700010} it may be necessary to specify ‘we are set free from sin’ or ‘we are set free from our bad desires.’
