tak: Most of the very numerous examples of this word are still in good use and only a few call for special attention. To take in the sense of capture is still common, but when a person or living animal is in point, modern English usually adds prisoner or captive. English Versions of the Bible not infrequently has this addition (Gen 14:14, etc.), but more commonly take is used without it (Jos 10:39; Job 5:13; Sirach 23:21; Joh 7:30, etc.). An occasional obscurity is thus caused, as in Gen 27:3, take me venison for hunt venison for me. To take advice (2Ch 25:17; the King James Version Jdg 19:30, the Revised Version (British and American) counsel) is to reflect, not to consult others (compare 1Ki 12:28; but contrast 2Ki 6:8, etc.). To take knowledge of is to learn thoroughly, investigate (1Sa 23:23, etc.), as is to take notice of (2Sa 3:36). To take an oath of (Gen 50:25, etc.) is to exact an oath of. To be taken with a disease in the King James Version Mat 4:24; Luk 4:38 is to suffer with (the Revised Version (British and American) be holden with), but in 1 Macc 9:55; 2 Macc 9:21 (the King James Version and the Revised Version (British and American)), the context gives the force be attacked by, as in modern English Compare the King James Version Luk 8:37 (the Revised Version (British and American) holden); Mic 4:9 (the Revised Version (British and American) take hold of). Take occurs in the sense overtake in the King James Version Gen 19:19 (the Revised Version (British and American) overtake); Sirach 36:26. Take away has sometimes a more forcible significance than in modern English, as in the King James Version Lev 6:2, a thing taken away by violence (the Revised Version (British and American) robbery); Dan 11:12, the King James Version He hath taken away the multitude, where the meaning is swept away (compare the Revised Version margin carried away; the Revised Version (British and American) shall be lifted up is inappropriate here). So in lest he take thee away with his stroke (the King James Version Job 36:18), take away means simply slay. (The text here is intensely obscure, and the Revised Version (British and American) has followed a different interpretation.) So to be taken away may mean simply to die, as in Eze 33:6; The Wisdom of Solomon 14:15; Sirach 16:9; 19:3; Mar 2:20, although in 1Co 5:2 it means to be expelled. To take away judgment or right (Job 27:2; Job 34:5; Act 8:33) is to refuse it, but in Zep 3:15 English Versions of the Bible means the sentence against thee is canceled (the Hebrew text is dubious). Neh 5:2 the King James Version has take up for get (so the Revised Version (British and American)), perhaps with the connotation on credit. Take up is also used frequently for utter solemnly (Num 23:7; Isa 14:4, etc.), a use due to the Hebrew lift up, exalt (, nasa’). For take up in the sense of lift (physically), compare Isa 40:15; Act 7:43; the King James Version 21:15. Take care in Tobit 5:20; 1Co 9:9 the King James Version (the Revised Version (British and American) to care) means be anxious about, have in mind And the very obscure scurrility in the matter of giving and taking (Sirach 41:19) is explained by the Hebrew to mean refusing the gift for which thou art besought. The following phrases are archaic, but hardly need explanation: Take indignation (Neh 4:1); take wrong (1Co 6:7); take up in the lips (Eze 36:3; the King James Version Psa 16:4, take … into my lips, the Revised Version (British and American) take … upon my lips); and in the King James Version take to record (Act 20:26, the Revised Version (British and American) testify unto); take shame (Mic 2:6 the King James Version).<\/p>\n
“to take, lay hold of,” besides its literal sense, e.g., Mat 5:40<\/span>; Mat 26:26-27<\/span>, is used metaphorically, of fear, in “taking” hold of people, Luk 7:16<\/span>, RV (AV, “came … on”); of sin in “finding (occasion),” RV (AV, “taking”), Rom 7:8<\/span>, Rom 7:11<\/span>, where sin is viewed as the corrupt source of action, an inward element using the commandment to produce evil effects; of the power of temptation, 1Co 10:13<\/span>; of “taking” an example, Jam 5:10<\/span>; of “taking” peace from the earth, Rev 6:4<\/span>; of Christ in “taking” the form of a servant, Phi 2:7<\/span>; of “taking” rightful power (by the Lord, hereafter), Rev 11:17<\/span>. See ACCEPT, No. 4. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n signifies (a) “to take up” (ana), e.g., Act 1:2<\/span>, Act 1:11<\/span>, Act 1:22<\/span> (RV, “received”); (b) “to take to oneself,” Act 7:43<\/span>; or “to one’s company,” Act 20:13-14<\/span>; Act 23:31<\/span>; 2Ti 4:11<\/span>; of “taking up spiritual armor,” Eph 6:13<\/span>, Eph 6:16<\/span>. See RECEIVE. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n besides its common meaning, “to receive,” denotes “to take apart or aside,” Mar 7:33<\/span>, Middle Voice. It is frequent in the papyri, and, in the sense of separation or drawing aside, is illustrated in a message of sorrow, concerning the non-arrival of one who with others had been “shut up” as recluses in a temple (Moulton and Milligan, Vocab.). See RECEIVE. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n in the Middle Voice, “to lay hold of, take hold of,” is used literally, e.g., Mar 8:23<\/span>; Luk 9:47<\/span>; Luk 14:4<\/span>; metaphorically, e.g., Heb 8:9<\/span>, “(I) took them (by the hand):” for other instances in each respect see HOLD, No. 7. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to lay hold of,” is rendered “to take,” in Mar 9:18<\/span>; Joh 8:3-4<\/span>. See APPREHEND. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to get, or have, a share of,” is rendered “to take (food)” in Act 2:46<\/span>, RV (AV, “did eat,” see EAT, Note); Act 27:33<\/span>, i.e., “to share it together.” See HAVE, PARTAKE, RECEIVE. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n besides its meaning “to receive,” denotes “to take to (or with) oneself,” of “taking” a wife, e.g., Mat 1:20<\/span>, Mat 1:24<\/span>; of “taking” a person or persons with one, e.g., Mat 2:13-14<\/span>, Mat 2:20-21<\/span>; Mat 4:5<\/span>, Mat 4:8<\/span>; of demons, Mat 12:45<\/span>; of Christ and His disciples, Mat 17:1<\/span>; Mat 20:17<\/span>; Mar 9:2<\/span>; Mar 10:32<\/span>; Mar 14:33<\/span>; of witnesses, Mat 18:16<\/span>; of the removal of persons from the earth in judgment, when “the Son of Man is revealed,” Mat 24:40-41<\/span>; Luk 17:34-35<\/span> (cp. the means of the removal of corruption, in Luk 17:37<\/span>); of the “taking” of Christ by the soldiers for scourging, Mat 27:27<\/span>, RV, and to crucifixion, Joh 19:16<\/span>; see also Act 15:39<\/span>; Act 16:33<\/span>; Act 21:24<\/span>, Act 21:26<\/span>, Act 21:32<\/span>; Act 23:18<\/span>.

See CATCH, CONCEIVE, HELP. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to lift, carry, take up or away,” occurs very frequently with its literal meanings. In Joh 1:29<\/span> it is used of Christ as “the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world,” not the sins, but sin, that which has existed from the time of the Fall, and in regard to which God has had judicial dealings with the world; through the expiatory sacrifice of Christ the sin of the world will be replaced by everlasting righteousness; cp. the plural, “sins,” in 1Jo 3:5<\/span>. Righteous judgment was “taken away” from Christ at human tribunals, and His life, while voluntarily given by Himself (Joh 10:17-18<\/span>), was “taken (from the earth),” Act 8:33<\/span> (quoted from the Sept. of Isa 53:8<\/span>). In Joh 15:2<\/span> it is used in the Lord’s statement, “Every branch in Me that beareth not fruit, He taketh it away.” This does not contemplate members of the “body” of Christ, but those who (just as a graft which being inserted, does not “abide” or “strike”) are merely professed followers, giving only the appearance of being joined to the parent stem. <\/p>\n The Law described in Col 2:14<\/span> as “the bond written in ordinances that was against us,” Christ “took” out of the way at His Cross. In 1Co 5:2<\/span>, airo is used in the best texts (some have No. 14), of the Divine judgment which would have been exercised in “taking away” from the church the incestuous delinquent, had they mourned before God. See AWAY, BEAR, No. 9, etc. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to lift off” (apo, “from,” and No. 12), is used, in the Passive Voice, of Christ, metaphorically as the Bridegroom of His followers, Mat 9:15<\/span>; Mar 2:20<\/span>; Luk 5:35<\/span>. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to take away,” is used of “putting away” a person in church discipline, 1Co 5:13<\/span>; for this verb as a variant reading in 1Co 5:2<\/span>, see No. 12. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to lift, raise,” is used in the Passive Voice and rendered “He was taken up” in Act 1:9<\/span>.

See CUT, No. 8. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to take down” (kata), besides its meaning of “putting down by force,” was the technical term for the “removal” of the body after crucifixion, Mar 15:36<\/span>, Mar 15:46<\/span>; Luk 23:53<\/span>; Act 13:29<\/span>. See CAST, No. 14. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to take away that which surrounds” (peri, “around”), is used (a) literally, of “casting off” anchors, Act 27:40<\/span>, RV (AV, “having taken up”); Act 28:13<\/span> in some texts, for perierchomai, “to make a circuit;” (b) metaphorically, of “taking away” the veil off the hearts of Israel, 2Co 3:16<\/span>; of hope of rescue, Act 27:20<\/span>; of sins (negatively), Heb 10:11<\/span>. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to receive,” is rendered “take (thy bond, RV, AV, bill)” in Luk 16:6-7<\/span>; “take (the helmet of salvation),” Eph 6:17<\/span>, suggesting a heartiness in the “taking.” See ACCEPT, No. 1, RECEIVE. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to receive favorably,” is rendered “took” in Heb 10:34<\/span>.

See HOLD. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to lay or take hold of forcefully,” is always rendered “to take” in the RV. See APPREHEND, No. 2. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to bear away” (para, “aside,” phero, “to bear”), “remove,” is rendered “take away” in Mar 14:36<\/span>, AV, RV, “remove,” as in Luk 22:42<\/span>. See REMOVE. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to have, to hold,” is used in Mat 21:46<\/span> in the sense of regarding a person as something, “they took (Him) for (a prophet).” See HAVE. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to bring together,” is used of “taking” a person into one’s house receiving hospitality, “took … in,” Mat 25:35<\/span>, Mat 25:38<\/span>, Mat 25:43<\/span>; so in Act 11:26<\/span>, RV, “were gathered together,” AV, “assembled;” perhaps the meaning is “they were entertained.” See ASSEMBLE, BESTOW, GATHER. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to take off a garment from a person,” is so rendered with reference to the soldiers’ treatment of Christ, Mat 27:31<\/span>; Mar 15:20<\/span>. See STRIP. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n has the meaning “to bring or take out” in Luk 10:35<\/span>, “took out (two pence),” a word perhaps chosen to express the wholeheartedness of the act (lit., “to throw out”).
