(1) ἐπιδιατάσσομαι , epidiatássomaı̄ , "to add to," "to arrange in addition": Found only in Galatians 3:15 , which may thus be paraphrased: "To take a familiar illustration: even a man's will, when ratified, no third party may annul or supplement" (Dummelow, in the place cited.).

(2) ἐπιτίθημι , epitı́thēmı̄ , "to put upon," "If any man shall add unto them, God shall add unto him the plagues" (Revelation 22:18 ). The book is not to be falsified by addition or excision (see BOOK ) by the interpolation of unauthorized doctrines or the neglect of essential ones (compare Deuteronomy 4:2; Deuteronomy 12:32 ). See also IMPART; SUPPLY .
