Vine's Expository Dictionary of NT Words

1: μεταπέμπω

(Strong's #3343 — Verb — metapempo — met-ap-emp'-o )

"to send after of for" (meta, "after," pemp, "to send"), in the Middle Voice, is translated "fetch" in the RV of Acts 10:5; 11:13 . See CALL.

Notes: (1) In Acts 16:37 , the RV gives to exago, "to bring out," the adequate meaning "let them ... bring us out," for the AV, "let them fetch us out." "Fetch" is not sufficiently dignified for the just demand made. (2) For Acts 28:13 , AV, "fetched a compass," see CIRCUIT.
