Strong’s Definitions [?](Strong’s Definitions Legend)
ἐκδύω ekdýō, ek-doo'-o; from G1537 and the base of G1416; to cause to sink out of, i.e. (specially as of clothing) to divest:—strip, take off from, unclothe.
STRONGS G1562:
ἐκδύω: 1 aorist ἐξέδυσα; 1 aorist middle ἐξεδυσάμην; (δύω); to take off: τινά, to strip one of his garments, Matthew 27:28 [L WH marginal reading ἐνδύσ.]; Luke 10:30; τινά τι (as in Greek from Homer down), [a thing from a person]: Matthew 27:31; Mark 15:20; middle, to take off from oneself, to put off one's raiment, (Xenophon, Ag. 1, 28; Hell. 3, 4, 19); figuratively, to put off the body, the clothing of the soul, [A. V. be unclothed]: 2 Corinthians 5:4; the reading ἐκδυσάμενοι, adopted in 2 Corinthians 5:3 by certain critics [e. g. Mill, Tdf. 7, Reiche, others], is due to a correction by the copyists; see γυμνός, 1 d.
[Compare: ἀπεκδύομαι.]
