378 anaplēróō (from 303 /aná, "up, completing a process," which intensifies 4137 /plēróō, "fill") – properly, fulfill, fill up completely. As a strengthened form of 4137 /plēróō ("fulfill"), 378 (anaplēróō) is "not the filling up of a perfect vacancy, as with the simple 4137 /plēróō – but rather the supplying of what is lacking to fullness; the filling up of a partial void" (WS, 1000).
