Object (Hastings' Dictionary)

This verb occurs twice in AV: Wis 2" «He upbraideth us with our offending the law, and objecteth to our infamy the transgressings of our education’ (ἐπιφημίζει ἡμῖν ἁμαρτήματα παιδείας ἡμῶν, Vulg. ‘diffamat in nos peccata aie hs nostre,’ Gen.

‘blameth us as transgressors of dis- cipline’; RV ‘layeth to our charge sins against our discipline’); and Ac 24% ‘Who ought to have been here before thee, and object, if the: had ought against me,’ where the verb so translated is κατη- γορέω (κατά and ἀγορεύω, to speak against one in open court), which is rendered ‘accuse’ in Ac 24%, e verb was also used transitively in the same sense of public accusation, as Mk 14” Rhem.
