Vv.) ; to fill up in turn: Col. i. 24 (the meaning is, ‘what is wanting of the afflictions of Christ to be borne by me, that I supply in order to repay the benefits which Christ conferred on me by filling up the measure of the afflictions laid upon him’); [Mey., Ellic., ete., explain the word (with Wetst.) by “ἀντὶ ὑστερήματος succedit ἀναπλήρωμα᾽; but see Bp. Lghtft. ad loc., who also quotes the passages where the word occurs]. (Dem. p. 182, 22; Dio Cass. 44,48; Apollon. Dysc. de constr. orat. i. pp. 14, 1 [ef. Bttm. ad loc.]; 114, 8; 258, 3; 337, 4.)

Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
ἀνταναπληρόω. With this expressive compound (Col 1535) cf. the similarly formed ἀνταναγινώσκω in the fragmentary P Petr II. 17 (1)}8, where with reference apparently to certain ἐγκλήματα we read, ἀνταναγνώσθη μοι καθότι ἀξιῶ. Its opposite ἀνταναιρέω is common in Ptolemaic land-surveys = ‘“‘subtract””. In P Tebt I. alone there are over twenty instances of this use (see Index): cf. also P Eleph 288 (iii/b.c.), and from i/A.D. BGU III. γηγοὶϊ 18 at εἰς ἀτέλ(ειαν) ἀνταναιρ[ούμεναι ... Grimm’s citations sufficiently warrant ἀνταναπληρόω itself. Linde (p. 49) cites the noun (-wots) from Epicurus 11°.
