STRONGS NT 656: ἀποσυνάγωγος

ἀποσυνάγωγος, ἀποσυναγωγον (συναγωγή, which see), excluded from the sacred assemblies of the Israelites; excommunicated, (A. V. put out of the synagogue): John 9:22; John 12:42; John 16:2. Whether it denotes also exclusion from all contact with Israelites (2 Esdr. 10:8), must apparently be left in doubt; cf. Winers (or Riehm) RWB under the word Bann; Wieseler on Galatians 1:8, p. 45ff (reproduced by Prof. Riddle in Schaff's Lange's Romans, pp. 304-306; cf. B. D. under the word ).
