Greek display:    

Headword: *)epeilhmme/nh
Adler number: epsilon,2128
Translated headword: having seized upon
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] taking hold of.
Greek Original:
*)epeilhmme/nh: a)ntilamba/nousa.
Notes:
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.
