14 ἀποστοματίζω
ἀποστοματίζω (s. στόμα) is found since Pla. (Euthyd. 276c; 277a) w. the mngs. ‘dictate for recitation’ or ‘repeat from memory’ (ἀπὸ στόματος), which do not fit the context of Lk 11:53 (note that the passage is not text-critically certain; see Tdf.), but a transf. sense such as question closely, interrogate, quiz τινὰ περί τινος (so L-S-J-M s.v. I 2; cp. Pla. in Pollux 2, 102 [pass.]) is prob.; but s. Wlh. ad loc. Ancient commentators interpreted it as catch (him) in someth. he says=vs. 54; then approx. watch his utterances closely, but such exposition imposes excessive semantic burden on the context. On the analogy of ἐπιστοματίζω ‘to silence’ someone, Luke’s usage may be rendered have him talk (about many things); the opposition expects Jesus to say someth. that would be incriminating, vs. 54.—DELG s.v. στομα. M-M.Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά παλαιοχριστιανική Λογοτεχνία > ἀποστοματίζω
