A. 624; Aristophanes ran. 340; cf. Fritzsche on Mark, p. 55; [Buttmann, 56 (49), 144f (126f); Kühner, § 373, 2]; Sept. generally for הֵעִיר and הֵקִים; to arouse, cause to rise;

Metaphorically, ἐξ ὕπνου ἐγερθῆναι, to arise from a state of moral sloth to an active life devoted to God, Romans 13:11; likewise ἔγειρε [Rec. -ραι] arise, καθεύδων, Ephesians 5:14.
2. to arouse from the sleep of death, to recall the dead to life: with νεκρούς added, John 5:21; Acts 26:8; 2 Corinthians 1:9. ἔγειρε [Rec. -ραι] arise, Mark 5:41; passive ἐγείρου, Luke 8:54 [R G T]; ἐγέρθητι, arise from death, Luke 7:14; ἐγείρονται οἱ νεκροί, Matthew 11:5; Luke 7:22; Luke 20:37; 1 Corinthians 15:15, 16, 29, 32 (Isaiah 26:19); ἐγείρειν ἐκ νεκρῶν, from the company of the dead [cf.
