[Meaning] taking hold of.
*)epeilhmme/nh: a)ntilamba/nousa.
Here a perfect middle participle (feminine nominative singular) is glossed with a present active participle, the latter derived from the same root but with a different prefix. For different forms of the verb represented by the headword, see
epsilon 2128 and
epsilon 2431.
As Latte on
Hesychius epsilon4333 (same headword, gloss
kratou=sa) notes, the headword is surely quoted from
Genesis 25.26
LXX: the hand of the newly-born Jacob grasps the heel of his brother Esau.
