Thayer's Expanded Definition

ἐγκεντρίζω (T WH ἐνκεντρίζω, see ἐν, III. 3): 1 aorist ἐνεκεντρισα; passive, 1 aorist ἐνεκεντρίσθην; 1 future ἐγκεντρισθήσομαι; to cut into for the sake of inserting a scion; to inoculate, ingraft, graft in, (Aristotle quoted in Athen. 14, 68 (p. 653 d.); Theophrastus, h., p. 2, 2, 5; Antoninus 11, 8): τινα, Romans 11:17, 19, 23, 24 (cf. Winers Grammar, § 52, 4, 5); in these passages Paul likens the heathen who by becoming Christians have been admitted into fellowship with the people for whom the Messianic salvation is destined, to scions from wild trees inserted into a cultivated stock; (cf. Beet on verse 24; B. D. under the word ).

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἐνκεντρίζω belongs to the higher Κοινή : see the citations in Grimm-Thayer, and cf. Nägeli, p. 33. As against the view that the process described by Paul in Romans 11:17 is ";wholly unnatural,"; and that the strength of his argument depends on this fact (SH ad l.), see W. M. Ramsay Pauline Studies, p. 219 ff.
