Appease [1]

a - pēz ´: "To make one at peace." Esau is appeased, i.e. placated, won over by means of presents ( Genesis 32:20 ). One "slow to anger appeaseth strife," i.e. puts an end to it ( Proverbs 15:18 ). the Revised Version (British and American) changes "appeased" of the King James Version in  Acts 19:35 into "quieted" (Greek katastéllō , "put down," "suppress," "restrain," referring to a popular commotion).
