    Glosses: ['homestead', 'house', 'residence']
    Comments: In the NT ἔπαυλις occurs only in {S:04400102000016} as a quotation of {S:01906902500000}. The immediate reference is to a person’s traditional residence, but the entire passage must be interpreted figuratively as a reference to a person’s expected position or place of service. The phrase γενηθήτω ἡ ἔπαυλις αὐτοῦ ἔρημος may be rendered as ‘may his house become empty’ or ‘may his home be deserted.’
