[B-Greek] DUNAMIN EIS KATABOLHN SPERMATOS (Heb 11:11)

In Hebrew 11:11 there is the phrase "DUNAMIN EIS KATABOLHN SPERMATOS".  Some
translate it as "power to deposit/sow seed", but Rienecker and Rogers claim
it is an idiom meaning "power to receive the sowing of seed".  I was
wondering if anyone knew the basis for the claim that this is an idiom?  I
am presuming they did not fabricate the idiom themselves.
 
Thanks
