Greek-English Concordance for προσρήσσω

Luke 6:48 he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on bedrock; when a flood arose, the river broke (proserēxen | προσέρηξεν | aor act ind 3 sg) against that house but could not shake it, because it had been well built.
Luke 6:49 But the one who hears and does not do them is like a man building a house on the ground without a foundation; when the river burst (proserēxen | προσέρηξεν | aor act ind 3 sg) against it, immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great.”
