Only here in New Testament. The word originally means to leave off breathing; to swoon. Thus Homer, when Laertes recognizes Ulysses:“He threwRound his dear son his arms. The hardy chief, Ulysses, drew him fainting ( ἀποψύχοντα ) to his heart.”Odyssey, xxiv., 846.So also Sophocles, of Hector dragged behind Achilles' chariot:“He breathed out his life ( ἀπέψυξεν βίον ).Ajax, 1031.Matthew alone uses the simple verb, ψύχω , to breathe or blow. See on wax cold, Matthew 24:12. Luke uses four compounds of this simple verb, all of which are peculiar to him. Compare cool, Luke 16:24; refreshing, Acts 3:19; gave up the ghost, Acts 5:5, Acts 5:10. [source]
Αντι Anti with the genitive of the relative pronoun, “in return for which things.” He accepted the impious flattery (Hackett) instead of giving God the glory. He was a nominal Jew. He was eaten of worms (γενομενος σκωληκοβρωτος genomenos skōlēkobrōtos). Ingressive aorist middle participle, “becoming worm-eaten.” The compound verbal adjective (σκωληχ skōlēx worm, βρωτος brōtos eaten, from βιβρωσκω bibrōskō) is a late word (II Macc. Acts 9:9) of the death of Antiochus Epiphanes, used also of a tree (Theophrastus), here only in the N.T. The word σκωληχ skōlēx was used of intestinal worms and Herodotus (IV. 205) describes Pheretima, Queen of Cyrene, as having swarms of worms which ate her flesh while still alive. Josephus (Ant. XIX. 8, 2) says that Herod Agrippa lingered for five days and says that the rotting of his flesh produced worms, an item in harmony with the narrative in Luke. Josephus gives further details, one a superstitious sight of an owl sitting on one of the ropes of the awning of the theatre while the people flattered him, an omen of his death to him. Luke puts it simply that God smote him. Gave up the ghost Effective aorist active of εκπσυχω ekpsuchō to breathe out, late verb, medical term in Hippocrates, in the N.T. only in Acts 5:5, Acts 5:10; Acts 12:23. Herod was carried out of the theatre a dying man and lingered only five days. [source]

Literally the younger men (contrast with οι πρεσβυτεροι hoi presbuteroi the elder men). Same as νεανισκοι neaniskoi in Acts 5:10 and so no order in the young church. Perhaps these young men were acting as ushers or actual pallbearers. [source]
