    Comments: In a number of languages it is difficult to find a general term for ‘destruction.’ What has often happened is the extension of meaning from a more specific type of reference, for example, ‘to smash,’ to a more generic meaning of ‘to destroy,’ and whether one understands the specific or more generic meaning depends largely upon the context. Accordingly, in {S:04400800300006} one may find a figurative usage of a term meaning ‘to smash’ (though understood in a more generic sense), for example, ‘Saul then worked in order to smash the church.’

    DefinitionShort: to lose something which one already possesses
    Glosses: to lose
    Comments: ἀπόλλυμι in the sense of losing what one already possesses may be analyzed basically as ‘not to have that which one has previously had.’ There is, however, no suggestion in ἀπόλλυμι[c] as to the particular type of circumstances involved in the loss, whether, for example, from neglect, by accident, or as the result of some external force.|It is also possible to interpret ἀπόλλυμι in {S:04201500800016} as ‘to not know where something is’ (see {D:27.29}).

    DefinitionShort: an idiom, literally: to suffer the destruction of one’s life, or: to have one’s life destroyed
    Glosses: ['to experience the loss of life', 'to die']
    Comments: In {S:04001003900020} some scholars see in the use of ψυχή a reference not to physical life but to a particular quality of life. This is difficult to justify except in terms of the total context, and it may be that in {S:04001003900020} there is a degree of intentional ambiguity with respect to the meaning of ψυχή.
