International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
EMBRACE

em-bras': The word has two distinct meanings in the Old Testament:

(1) to clasp and hold fondly in the arms, pointing to a common custom (Genesis 29:13; Genesis 33:4; Genesis 48:10 2 Kings 4:16 Songs 2:6; Songs 8:3 compare Acts 20:10), and

(2) to have sexual intercourse (Proverbs 4:8; Proverbs 5:20 Ecclesiastes 3:5). It seems to have acquired this technical sense in later Jewish usage.

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary
1. (v. t.) To fasten on, as armor.

2. (n.) To clasp in the arms with affection; to take in the arms; to hug.

3. (n.) To cling to; to cherish; to love.

4. (n.) To seize eagerly, or with alacrity; to accept with cordiality; to welcome.

5. (n.) To encircle; to encompass; to enclose.

6. (n.) To include as parts of a whole; to comprehend; to take in; as, natural philosophy embraces many sciences.

7. (n.) To accept; to undergo; to submit to.

8. (n.) To attempt to influence corruptly, as a jury or court.

9. (v. i.) To join in an embrace.

10. (n.) Intimate or close encircling with the arms; pressure to the bosom; clasp; hug.
