STRONGS G378:
ἀναπληρόω, -ῶ; future ἀναπληρώσω; 1 aorist ἀνεπλήρωσα; [present passive ἀναπληροῦμαι]; (ἀνά to, up to, e. g. to fill a vessel up to the brim; up to the appointed measure or standard, German anfüllen); [from Euripides down];
1. to fill up, make full, e. g. a ditch (Strabo 5, 6, p. 223); hence, tropically, ἁμαρτίας, 1 Thessalonians 2:16 (to add what is still wanting to complete the number of their sins; on the meaning, cf. Genesis 15:16; Daniel 8:23; Daniel 9:24; Matthew 23:32; 2 Macc. 6:14). ἀναπληροῦται ἡ προφητεία the prophecy is fully satisfied, the event completely corresponds to it, Matthew 13:14. τὸν νόμου to fulfil i. e. observe the law perfectly, Galatians 6:2 (Epistle of Barnabas 21 ἀναπλ. πᾶσαν ἐντολήν); τὸν τόπον τινός to fill the place of anyone, 1 Corinthians 14:16 (after the rabbinical מְקוֹם מָלֵא to hold the position of anyone [yet cf. Meyer at the passage.]).
2. to supply: τὸ ὑστέρημα, Philippians 2:30 (Colossians 1:24); 1 Corinthians 16:17 (they by their presence supplied your place in your absence); cf. Plato, symp., p. 188 e. ἀλλ’ εἴ τι ἐξέλιπον, σὸν ἔργον (namely, ἐστίν) ἀναπληρῶσαι. Cf. Winer's De verb. comp. etc. Part iii., p. 11f; [Ellicott on Philippians, the passage cited, or Meyer on Galatians, the passage cited.
Compare: ἀντ-, προσαναπληρόω].
