Sinner
Sinner
siner (, hatta; , hamartolos, devoted to sin, erring one): In the New Testament, in addition to its ordinary significance of one that sins (Luk 5:8; Luk 13:2; Rom 5:8, Rom 5:19; 1Ti 1:15; Heb 7:26), the term is applied to those who lived in disregard of ceremonial prescription (Mat 9:10, Mat 9:11; Mar 2:15 ff; Luk 5:30; Gal 2:15); to those stained with certain definite vices or crimes, as the publicans (Luk 15:2; Luk 18:13; Luk 19:7); to the heathen (Mat 26:45; Gal 2:15; compare Tobit 13:6; 1 Macc 1:34; 2 Macc 2:48, 62); to the preeminently sinful (Mar 8:38; Joh 9:24, Joh 9:31; Gal 2:17; 1Ti 1:9; Jud 1:15). It was the Jewish term for a woman of ill-fame (Luk 7:37; compare Mat 21:32, where it is stated that such had come even to John’s baptism also). For the general Biblical conception of the term, see SIN.

Sinner
lit., “one who misses the mark” (a meaning not to be pressed), is an adjective, most frequently used as a noun (see SINFUL); it is the most usual term to describe the fallen condition of men; it is applicable to all men, Rom 5:8, Rom 5:19. In the Synoptic Gospels the word is used not infrequently, by the Pharisees, of publicans (tax collectors) and women of ill repute, e.g., “a woman which was in the city, a sinner,” Luk 7:37; “a man that is a sinner,” Luk 19:7. In Gal 2:15, in the clause “not sinners of the Gentiles,” the Apostle is taking the Judaizers on their own ground, ironically reminding them of their claim to moral superiority over Gentiles; he proceeds to show that the Jews are equally sinners with Gentiles.
Note: In Luk 13:4, AV, opheiletes, “a debtor,” is translated “sinners” (RV, “offenders;” RV and AV marg., “debtors”).
