títhēmi · “to place”
Definition
to place (in the widest application, literally and figuratively; properly, in a passive or horizontal posture, and thus different from G2476 (ἵστημι), which properly denotes an upright and active position, while G2749 (κεῖμαι) is properly reflexive and utterly prostrate)
KJV translates it as: + advise, appoint, bow, commit, conceive, give, X kneel down, lay (aside, down, up), make, ordain, purpose, put, set (forth), settle, sink down
Word origin: a prolonged form of a primary (which is used only as alternate in certain tenses);
