Hupolambano describes taking or receiving something, and also forming a supposition in response to a situation.

The attested uses most often concern taking up or receiving a person, a question, or an object of action; in two dialogues, the verb marks a supposition offered about what is thought to be the case.

   In Luke 10:30, the aorist participle introduces Jesus as he begins his reply; the APB renders, “Jesus took up the question and said.” In Acts 1:9 the aorist indicative occurs in the account of a cloud removing him from sight, while 3 John 1:8 has a present infinitive in the exhortation to receive such persons.
