Help Resistance woman tempted to conceal priest (7)
I believe the answer is:
relieve
'help' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'resistance woman tempted to conceal priest' is the wordplay.
'resistance' becomes 'r' (abbreviation).
'woman tempted' becomes 'eve'.
'to conceal' is an insertion indicator.
'priest' becomes 'eli' (I've seen this before).
'r'+'eve'='reve'
'reve' enclosing 'eli' is 'RELIEVE'.
(Other definitions for relieve that I've seen before include "Make less tedious, bring aid to (besieged place)" , "Allay, alleviate" , "Break the sameness of" , "Alleviate pain or stress" , "Take a job over from - bring aid" .)
