1. receive in full / have back — To have received in full, often in a commercial or transactional sense indicating complete receipt of what is owed. In Matt 6:2,5,16 the hypocrites 'have received' (ἀπέχουσιν) their reward in full -- their public praise is the totality of what they will ever get. In Luke 6:24 the rich 'are receiving' (ἀπέχετε) their consolation now. In Phil 4:18 Paul says 'I have received in full' (ἀπέχω) everything from the Philippians' gift. In Philem 15 Paul writes that Onesimus was separated 'so that you may have him back' (ἀπέχῃς) forever.

3. be distant from — To be at a spatial or metaphorical distance from a place or person. In Matt 14:24 the boat 'was distant' (ἀπεῖχεν) many stadia from the land. In Matt 15:8 (=Mark 7:6, quoting Isa 29:13) 'their heart is far' (ἀπέχει) from God. In Luke 7:6 the centurion's house 'was not far' (ἀπέχοντος) off.

4. it is enough / it is settled — Impersonal use meaning 'it is enough,' 'it is settled,' or 'the matter is concluded.' In Mark 14:41 Jesus says in Gethsemane ἀπέχει ('It is enough') after finding the disciples sleeping the third time, signaling the end of the vigil as the betrayer approaches. This impersonal use is debated among commentators -- some take it as 'the account is settled' (commercial metaphor), others as 'it is far off' (the end is far away), but the dominant reading is 'it suffices / enough.'
