SIG 1175, 14ff; 32–35 Ἀριστὼ ἐγὼ ἔλαβον καὶ ἔδησα τὰς χεῖρας καὶ τοὺς πόδας καὶ τὴν γλῶσσαν καὶ τὴν ψυχήν). For another transcendent binding cp. δεδεμένος τῷ πνεύματι bound by the Spirit Ac 20:22 (similar imagery, perh., in Apollon. Rhod. 4, 880 ἀμηχανίη δῆσεν φρένας ‘perplexity bound his mind’).—On the binding of the dragon Rv 20:2 s. JKroll, Gott u. Hölle ’32, esp. 316ff; Tob 8:3; TestLevi 18:12.② to tie someth. to someth., tie to an animal (4 Km 7:10) Mt 21:2; Mk 11:2, 4 (πρὸς θύραν); Lk 19:30; angels Rv 9:14. δ. δέκα λεοπάρδοις tied to ten leopards (on the language: Soph., Aj. 240 κίονι δήσας = πρὸς κίονα 108; cp. Jos., Ant. 18, 196) IRo 5:1 v.l.— Fasten someth. (ParJer 7:35 τὴν ἐπιστολὴν εἰς τὸν τράχηλον τοῦ ἀέτου) a linen cloth at its four corners Ac 10:11 v.l.③ to constrain by law and duty, bind w. dat. of pers. to someone: of a wife to her husband Ro 7:2; of a husband to his wife 1 Cor 7:27 (for the form cp. Posidippus [III B.C.]: Anth. Pal. 9, 359, 5f ἔχεις γάμον; οὐκ ἀμέριμνος ἔσσεαι• οὐ γαμέεις; ζῇς ἔτʼ ἐρημότερος=You are married? You won’t be without cares. You remain unmarried? You’ll live still lonelier.). Abs. vs. 39 (cp. Achilles Tat. 1, 11, 2 v.l. ἄλλῃ δέδεμαι παρθένῳ; Iambl., Vi. Pyth. 11, 56 τὴν μὲν ἄγαμον … τὴν δὲ πρὸς ἄνδρα δεδεμένην); τοῖς λαϊκοῖς προστάγμασιν be bound by the rules for the people (those without official duties) 1 Cl 40:5.④ The combination δ. καὶ λύειν bind and loose (Ael. Aristid. 40, 7 K.=5 p. 55 D. of Prometheus: ὅσα δήσειεν ὁ Ζεύς, ταῦτʼ ἐξὸν Ἡρακλεῖ λῦσαι; 41, 7 K.; Teleclides Com. [V B.C.] Fgm. 42 K. δέω—ἀναλύω) is found Mt 16:19; 18:18. On the meaning δέω has here cp. J 20:22f (cp. 1QH 13:10). Another interpretation starts fr. the rabbinic viewpoint. Aram. אֲסַר and שְׁרָא are academic language for the decision of the rabbis as to what was to be regarded as ‘bound’ (אֲסִיר), i.e. forbidden, or ‘loosed’ (שְׁרֵי), i.e. permitted; s. Dalman, Worte 175ff; Billerb. I 738–47. Binding and loosing in magical practice are emphasized by WKöhler, ARW 8, 1905, 236ff; ADell, ZNW 15, 1914, 38ff. S. also VBrander, Der Katholik 94, 1914, 116ff; KAdam, Gesammelte Aufsätze ’36, 17–52; JMantey, JBL 58, ’39, 243–49; HCadbury, ibid. 251–54 (both on J 20:23; Mt 16:19; 18:18).—B. EDNT.
