Definition(s)
1) of men who fathered children
1a) to be born
1b) to be begotten 1b1) of women giving birth to children
2) metaph.
2a) to engender, cause to arise, excite
2b) in a Jewish sense, of one who brings others over to his way of life, to 
convert someone
2c) of God making Christ his son
2d) of God making men his sons through faith in Christ's work

Looks to me like it means to be born.
