STRONGS G948:
βδελύσσω: (βδέω quietly to break wind, to stink);
1. to render foul, to cause to be abhorred: τὴν ὀσμήν, Exodus 5:21; to defile, pollute: τὰς ψυχάς, τ. ψυχήν, Leviticus 11:43; Leviticus 20:25; 1 Macc. 1:48; perfect passive participle ἐβδελυγμένος abominable, Revelation 21:8, (Leviticus 18:30; Proverbs 8:7; Job 15:16; 3 Macc. 6:9; βδελυσσόμενος, 2 Macc. 5:8). In native Greek writings neither the active nor the passive is found.
2. βδελύσσομαι; deponent middle (1 aorist ἐβδελυξάμην often in the Sept. [Josephus, b. j. 6, 2, 10]; in Greek writings deponent passive, and from Aristophanes down); properly, to turn oneself away from on account of the stench; metaphorically, to abhor, detest: τί, Romans 2:22.
