See ENDURE, SUFFER. <\/p>\n<p> Note: For sunkakopatheo, <span class='bible'>2Ti 1:8<\/span>, see HARDSHIP. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;to suffer affliction, to be troubled,&#8221; has reference to sufferings due to the pressure of circumstances, or the antagonism of persons, <span class='bible'>1Th 3:4<\/span>; <span class='bible'>2Th 1:6-7<\/span>; &#8220;straitened,&#8221; in <span class='bible'>Mat 7:14<\/span> (RV); &#8220;throng,&#8221; <span class='bible'>Mar 3:9<\/span>; &#8220;afflicted,&#8221; <span class='bible'>2Co 1:6<\/span>; <span class='bible'>2Co 7:5<\/span> (RV); <span class='bible'>1Ti 5:10<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Heb 11:37<\/span>; &#8220;pressed,&#8221; <span class='bible'>2Co 4:8<\/span>. Both the verb and the noun (see B, No. 4), when used of the present experience of believers, refer almost invariably to that which comes upon them from without. See NARROW, PRESS, STRAITENED, THRONG, TRIBULATION, TROUBLE. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;to be afflicted,&#8221; is used in <span class='bible'>Jam 4:9<\/span>, in the Middle Voice (&#8220;afflict yourselves&#8221;). It is derived from tlao, &#8220;to bear, undergo,&#8221; and poros, &#8220;a hard substance, a callus,&#8221; which metaphorically came to signify that which is miserable. <\/p>\n<p> Note: Talaiporia (akin to No. 5) denotes &#8220;misery, hardship,&#8221; <span class='bible'>Rom 3:16<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Jam 5:1<\/span>. The corresponding adjective is talaiporos, &#8220;wretched,&#8221; <span class='bible'>Rom 7:24<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Rev 3:17<\/span>. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> from kakos, &#8220;evil,&#8221; and pascho, &#8220;to suffer&#8221; is rendered &#8220;suffering&#8221; in <span class='bible'>Jam 5:10<\/span>, RV (AV, &#8220;suffering affliction&#8221;). In Sept., <span class='bible'>Mal 1:13<\/span>. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;affliction, ill treatment,&#8221; is used in <span class='bible'>Act 7:34<\/span>. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> from pathos, &#8220;suffering,&#8221; signifies &#8220;affliction.&#8221; The word is frequent in Paul&#8217;s epistles and is found three times in Hebrews, four in 1 Peter; it is used (a) of &#8220;afflictions,&#8221; <span class='bible'>Rom 8:18<\/span>, etc.; of Christ&#8217;s &#8220;sufferings,&#8221; <span class='bible'>1Pe 1:11<\/span>; <span class='bible'>1Pe 5:1<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Heb 2:9<\/span>; of those as shared by believers, <span class='bible'>2Co 1:5<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Phi 3:10<\/span>; <span class='bible'>1Pe 4:13<\/span>; <span class='bible'>1Pe 5:1<\/span>; (b) of &#8220;an evil emotion, passion,&#8221; <span class='bible'>Rom 7:5<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Gal 5:24<\/span>. The connection between the two meanings is that the emotions, whether good or evil, were regarded as consequent upon external influences exerted on the mind (cp. the two meanings of the English &#8220;passion&#8221;). It is more concrete than No. 1, and expresses in sense (b) the uncontrolled nature of evil desires, in contrast to epithumia, the general and comprehensive term, lit., &#8220;what you set your heart upon&#8221; (Trench, Syn. lxxxvii). Its concrete character is seen in <span class='bible'>Heb 2:9<\/span>. See AFFECTION, MOTION, PASSION, SUFFERING. <\/p>\n<p> Note: The corresponding verbal form pathetos, used in <span class='bible'>Act 26:23<\/span> of the sufferings of Christ, signifies &#8220;destined to suffer.&#8221; <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p> primarily means &#8220;a pressing, pressure&#8221; (see A, No. 4), anything which burdens the spirit. In two passages in Paul&#8217;s Epistles it is used of future retribution, in the way of &#8220;affliction,&#8221; <span class='bible'>Rom 2:9<\/span>; <span class='bible'>2Th 1:6<\/span>. In <span class='bible'>Mat 24:9<\/span>, the AV renders it as a verb, &#8220;to be afflicted,&#8221; (RV, &#8220;unto tribulation&#8221;). It is coupled with stenochoria, &#8220;anguish,&#8221; in <span class='bible'>Rom 2:9<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Rom 8:35<\/span>; with ananke, &#8220;distress,&#8221; <span class='bible'>1Th 3:7<\/span>; with diogmos, &#8220;persecution,&#8221; <span class='bible'>Mat 13:21<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Mar 4:17<\/span>; <span class='bible'>2Th 1:4<\/span>. It is used of the calamities of war, <span class='bible'>Mat 24:21<\/span>, <span class='bible'>Mat 24:29<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Mar 13:19<\/span>, <span class='bible'>Mar 13:24<\/span>; of want, <span class='bible'>2Co 8:13<\/span>, lit., &#8220;distress for you;&#8221; <span class='bible'>Phi 4:14<\/span> (cp. <span class='bible'>Phi 1:16<\/span>); <span class='bible'>Jam 1:27<\/span>; of the distress of woman in child-birth, <span class='bible'>Joh 16:21<\/span>; of persecution, <span class='bible'>Act 11:19<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Act 14:22<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Act 20:23<\/span>; <span class='bible'>1Th 3:3<\/span>, <span class='bible'>1Th 3:7<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Heb 10:33<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Rev 2:10<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Rev 7:14<\/span>; of the &#8220;afflictions&#8221; of Christ, from which (His vicarious sufferings apart) his followers must not shrink, whether sufferings of body or mind, <span class='bible'>Col 1:24<\/span>; of sufferings in general, <span class='bible'>1Co 7:28<\/span>; <span class='bible'>1Th 1:6<\/span>, etc. See ANGUISH, BURDENED, DISTRESS, PERSECUTION, TRIBULATION, TROUBLE. <\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Vine&#8217;s Dictionary of New Testament Words<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Afflict (-ed), Affliction is translated &#8220;afflict,&#8221; in Act 12:1, RV (AV, &#8220;vex&#8221;).
