Strong’s Greek Lexicon
a primary verb (used as an alternate of G2068 in certain tenses); to eat (literally or figuratively):—eat, meat.
Owing to changes in the enumeration while in progress, there were no words left for numbers 2717 and 3203–3302, which were therefore silently dropped out of the vocabulary and references as redundant.
