English (Strong)

from ἀνατίθεμαι; a (religious) ban or (concretely) excommunicated (thing or person): accused, anathema, curse, X great.

English (Thayer)

(τος, τό (equivalent to τό ἀνατεθειμένον);
1. properly, a thing set up or laid by in order to be kept; specifically a votive offering, which after being consecrated to a god was hung upon the walls or columns of his temple, or put in some other conspicuous place: Plutarch, Pelop c. 25); L T, for ἀναθήμασι R G Tr WH; for the two forms are sometimes confounded in the manuscripts; Moeris, ἀνάθημα ἀττικῶς, ἀνάθεμα ἑλληνικῶς. Cf. ἐπίθημα, ἐπίθεμα, etc., in Lob. ad Phryn., p. 249 (cf. 445; Paral. 417; see also Lipsius, Gram. Unters., p. 41).
2. ἀνάθεμα in the Sept. is generally the translation of the Heb. חֵרֶם, a thing devoted to God without hope of being redeemed, and, if an animal, to be slain (Winer's Grammar, 32); a thing abominable and detestable, an accursed thing, ἀνάθεμα denotes a. a curse: ἀναθέματι ἀναθεματίζειν, Winer s Grammar, 466 (484); Buttmann, 184 (159)).
b. a man accursed, devoted to the direst woes (equivalent to ἐπικατάρατος): ἀνάθεμα ἔστω, ἀνάθεμα λέγειν τινα to execrate one, R G, but L T Tr WH have restored ἀνάθεμα Ἰησοῦς, namely, ἔστω); ἀνάθεμα εἶναι ἀπό τοῦ Χριστοῦ, doomed and so separated from Christ). Cf. the full remarks on this word in Fritzsche on Romans , vol. ii., 247ff; Wieseler on Galatians , p. 39ff; (a translation of the latter by Prof. Riddle in Schaff's Lange on Romans , p. 302ff; see also Trench, § v.; Lightfoot on Galatians , the passage cited; Ellicott ibid.; Tholuck on Romans , the passage cited; BB. DD., under the words, Anathema, Excommunication).
