STRONGS G656:
ἀποσυνάγωγος,
-ον, (
συναγωγή, which see),
excluded from the sacred assemblies of the Israelites; excommunicated, [A. V. put out of the synagogue]:
John 9:22;
John 12:42;
John 16:2. Whether it denotes also exclusion from all intercourse with Israelites (2 Esdr. 10:8), must apparently be left in doubt; cf.
Winers [or
Riehm] R W B under the word Bann; Wieseler on
Galatians 1:8, p. 45ff [reproduced by Prof.
Riddle in Schaff's Lange's Romans, pp. 304-306; cf.
B. D. under the word Excommunication]. (Not found in secular authors.)
