1. Choking or being choked · dominant

   In Matthew 13:7, the aorist active plural form is used of thorns that grow up around seed; the APB renders the clause “the thorns grew up and choked it.” In Matthew 18:28, the imperfect active singular form describes a slave who seized a fellow slave and began to choke him. Mark 5:13 uses an imperfect passive plural form as the herd rushed into the sea; the APB renders their outcome as being “drowned in the sea.”

   Matthew 13:7Matthew 18:28Mark 5:13

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB renders the active clauses with “choked” and “began to choke.” In Mark 5:13 it renders the passive scene as the pigs being “drowned in the sea,” so the precise contribution of the lemma is less directly isolated in the translation.
