What it means
A plain-English reading of the word, with the lexicons it draws on — Abbott-Smith, Strong's, and Liddell-Scott-Jones — right below it, in full.
AI Summary
βάλλω means to throw or cast, especially of a weapon or missile aimed at something, and covers throwing an object down, out, or away, casting lots, and hurling things such as a sword or sickle. 1234
More broadly, and often without any sense of violence, it means to put or place something somewhere, including pouring a liquid into a container and putting money on deposit. 13
In the passive it can describe someone as laid on a bed, that is, lying sick, and used on its own of the wind it can mean to rush or drive against something, as against a ship. 134
