Concise Bible Dictionary:
An act of respect between man and man, very common in the East, as Abraham bowed down himself before the people of the land when he bought a burying place for his dead (Gen. 23:7, 12). Also an act of reverence to God (Psa. 95:6); but strictly forbidden to be done before an idol or image (Ex. 20:5); and treated as an act of worship.
Strong’s Dictionary of Greek Words:
Meaning:
θέω (theh'-o) (which is used only as alternate in certain tenses) to place (in the widest application, literally and figuratively; properly, in a passive or horizontal posture, and thus different from 2476, which properly denotes an upright and active position, while 2749 is properly reflexive and utterly prostrate)
KJV Usage:
+ advise, appoint, bow, commit, conceive, give, X kneel down, lay (aside, down, up), make, ordain, purpose, put, set (forth), settle, sink down
