ὑποβάλλω G5260
To secretly induce, suborn, instigate covertly; to put someone up to making false accusations
This verb originally meant to throw or put under, but developed the specialized sense of secretly instigating or suborning someone—putting them up to something, usually something underhanded. Acts 6:11 uses it to describe how opponents of Stephen 'secretly induced' men to bring false charges of blasphemy against him. The verb suggests covert manipulation, coaching false witnesses behind the scenes. Spanish 'sobornaron' (they bribed) captures the corrupt, underhanded nature of the action.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — In Acts 6:11, Stephen's opponents, unable to refute his wisdom, resorted to dirty tactics: 'they secretly induced men to say, We have heard him speak blasphemous words.' The verb describes covert instigation (Spanish 'sobornaron,' they bribed/suborned) of false testimony—coaching or bribing witnesses to make false accusations. The classical sense of 'putting under' developed into this specialized meaning of underhandedly instigating false charges, fitting Luke's narrative of the religious establishment's corrupt opposition to the gospel. 1×
