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
λύω means to loose, untie, or set free. It is used of unfastening things such as ropes, straps, or bonds 13, of untying animals that have been tied up 1, and of releasing people from prison, from chains, or from illness 13. It also describes freeing someone from the bond of marriage 1, and is used of Satan being set loose 1. Strong's and Dodson give the same basic sense with the general gloss "loose, untie, release" 24.
λύω also means to break up, dissolve, or destroy. It is used of tearing down a building, a ship breaking apart in a storm, and of the elements or the heavens being dissolved 1; of undoing or destroying the works of the devil 1; and of ending or releasing someone from the pains of death 1. It can describe the dismissing of an assembly 1, and, applied to rules and texts, it means to break, annul, or set aside a commandment, the law, the Sabbath, or Scripture 1. Strong's sums this range up as "break (up), destroy, dissolve, ... melt, put off" 2. In the Greek Old Testament the same word is also used of forgiving sins 3.
