στὰς
hístēmi
To cause to stand, to place or set in a position (transitive); to stand, to remain standing, to stand still (intransitive). In various contexts, ἵστημι can mean to erect, establish, set up, appoint, make firm, or present, as well as to stay put, stand firm, stop, or remain. The sense oscillates between causing something or someone to be in a particular state or location, and the state of being in that position. Other contextual applications include standing fast (figuratively, i.e., remaining steadfast), establishing authority, or making a formal presentation (e.g., presenting oneself or another).
