Vetting Status: high
Translation: Meaning I set [it] up, I lay [it] down.[1]
Also [sc. attested is]
ἀπερείσασθαι ["to pour forth"], to put forward, to give forth.
"Just as they wanted to pour forth their spirit into those men."[2]

Ἀπερείδομαι τὸν πόκον: ἀντὶ τοῦ ἀποτίθημι, ἀκουμβίζω. καὶ Ἀπερείσασθαι, ἐκβαλεῖν, ἐκκενῶσαι. ὥσπερ εἰς ἐκείνους βουλόμενοι ἀπερείσασθαι τὸν θυμόν. καὶ Ἰώσηπος: πρὸς τὸν αἴτιον ἀπερείδεσθαι ἔλεγε τὴν ὀργήν. Ἀπερείσασθαι οὖν ἐκκενῶσαι, καταθαρρῆσαι, ἐπιβῆναι. πρὸς ἕνα καιρὸν ἀπερείσασθαι τὰς ἐλπίδας οὐδαμῶς ἔκρινε συμφέρειν.
