BEWRAY.To bewray (from Anglo-Saxon prefix be and wregan, to accuse) is not the same as to betray (from be and Lat. tradere to deliver). To bewray, now obsolete, means in AV [Note: Authorized Version.] to make known, reveal, as Mat_26:73 thy speech bewrayeth thee. Adams (Works, ii. 328) distinguishes the two words thus: he
will not bewray his disease, lest he betray his credit. Sometimes, however, hewray is used in an evil sense, and is scarcely distinguishable from hetray. Cf. bewrayer in 2Ma_4:1 a bewrayer of the money, and of his country.
