This middle/passive verb means to separate, part, or depart from. Luke 9:33 describes Peter speaking as Moses and Elijah 'were departing' from Jesus after the transfiguration.

Senses
1. sense 1 — To separate, depart, or move apart from someone or something. Peter's ill-timed suggestion about building shelters (Luke 9:33) came as Moses and Elijah 'were departing' (middle/passive infinitive) from Jesus—the heavenly visitors beginning to separate from the earthly scene.
