Greek-English Concordance for ἐκκλάω

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.
