Sore

sor (substantive) (, negha; , helkos, verb , helkoomai): In the account of the appearance of leprosy (Lev 13:42 f) the spot on the skin is called by this name, which in the King James Version is translated sore, but in the Revised Version (British and American) plague; similarly in the Dedication Prayer (2Ch 6:28 f) the Revised Version (British and American) has altered the rendering of negha for sore to plague as it has done also in Psa 38:11. The word literally means a stroke or blow, and so is applied to a disease or infliction from God. , makkah teryah, in the King James Version is rendered putrifying sores, the English Revised Version festering sores, the American Standard Revised Version and the English Revised Version margin fresh stripes. See STRIPES. In the only other text in the Old Testament in which sore is used as a substantive in the King James Version (Psa 77:2), the word used is yadh, which literally means the outstretched hand, hence, the Revised Version (British and American) renders the text: My hand was stretched out in the night and slacked not. In the New Testament the ulcers on the limbs of Lazarus which were the result of poverty and hardship (Luk 16:20), and were licked by the pariah dogs (Luk 16:21), are called sores. Sores also which are called noisome and grievous, were the result of the outpouring of the first of the seven bowls of the wrath of God (Rev 16:2-11).
