The phrase αἷμα έ᾿κχειν or ἐκχύν῾ν᾿ειν is frequently used of bloodshed: (Matthew 23:35; Luke 11:50; Acts 22:20; Romans 3:15; Revelation 16:6a (where Tdf. αἵματα)); see αἷμα, 2 a.
b. metaphorically, equivalent to to bestow or distribute largely (cf.

The passive, like the Latin effundor, me effundo, is used of those wire give themselves up to a thing, rush headlong into it, (γέλωτι, Alciphron; εἰς ἑταίρας, Polybius 32, 11, 4): absolutely τῇ πλάνη τοῦ Βαλαάμ μισθοῦ ἐξεχύθησαν, led astray by the hire of Balaam (i. e. by the same love of reward as Balaam) they gave themselves up, namely, to wickedness, Jude 1:11 (so ἐκχυθῆναι in Aristophanes vesp. 1469 is used absolutely of one giving himself up to joy. The passage in Jude is generally explained thus: "for hire they gave themselves up to (R. V. ran riotously in) the error of Balaam"; cf. Winer's Grammar, 206 (194) (and De Wette (edited by Brückner) at the passage)).
