For the AV, RV rendering ";go up higher"; for προσανάβηθι in Luke 14:10, Field (Notes, p. 66 f.) prefers ";come up higher,"; in order to give προσ — its full force. For this meaning of approach to where the host is sitting cf. the use of the single compd. ἀναβαίνω in Proverbs 25:7, and the use of προσβαίνω in such passages as P Oxy VII. 1028.11 (A.D. 86) τοὺς προσβαίνοντ (ας) εἰς τοὺς (τεσσαρεσκαιδεκαετεις), ";those approaching the age of 14, "; P Grenf II. 49.5 (A.D. 141) Ἀνουβᾶ προσβ (άντος) εἰς ιδ (ἔτος) τῷ ἐνεστῶτι ε ̄ (ἔτει) Ἀντωνίνου.
