Definition

to break off, pas., be broken, Rom. 11:17, 19, 20*

Romans 11:17	But if some of the branches were broken (exeklasthēsan \| ἐξεκλάσθησαν \| aor pass ind 3 pl) off, and you, although a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root of the olive tree,
Romans 11:19	Then you will say, “The branches were broken (exeklasthēsan \| ἐξεκλάσθησαν \| aor pass ind 3 pl) off so I could be grafted in.”
Romans 11:20	That is true. They (exeklasthēsan \| ἐξεκλάσθησαν \| aor pass ind 3 pl) were (exeklasthēsan \| ἐξεκλάσθησαν \| aor pass ind 3 pl) broken (exeklasthēsan \| ἐξεκλάσθησαν \| aor pass ind 3 pl) off (exeklasthēsan \| ἐξεκλάσθησαν \| aor pass ind 3 pl) because of unbelief, and you stand by faith. Do not be proud, but stand in awe.
