STRONGS G466:
ἀνταναπληρόω,
-ῶ; (
ἀντί and
ἀναπληρόω, which see);
to fill up in turn:
Colossians 1:24 (the meaning is, 'what is wanting of the afflictions of Christ to be borne by me, that I supply in order to repay the benefits which Christ conferred on me by filling up the measure of the afflictions laid upon him'); [Meyer, Ellicott, etc., explain the word (with Wetstein) by '
ἀντὶ ὑστερήματος succedit ἀναπλήρωμα'; but see Bp. Lightfoot at the passage, who also quotes the passages where the word occurs]. (Demosthenes, p. 182, 22; Dio Cassius, 44, 48; Apollonius Dyscolus, de constr. orat. i. pp. 14, 1 [cf. Buttmann at the passage]; 114, 8; 258, 3; 337, 4.)
