angwish: Extreme distress of body, mind or spirit; excruciating pain or suffering of soul, e.g. excessive grief, remorse, despair. Chiefly expressed in Old Testament, by four derivatives of , cuk, straitened, pressed, and , car, and two derivatives signifying straitness, narrowness, hence distress; also , shabhac, giddiness, confusion of mind; , hul to twist with pain, writhe. So in the New Testament, , thlpsis, a pressing together, hence affliction, tribulation, , stenochora, narrowness of place, hence extreme affliction; , sunoche, a holding together, hence distress. The fundamental idea in these various terms is pressure – being straitened, compressed into a narrow place, or pain through physical or mental torture. Used of the physical agony of child-birth (Jer 4:31; Jer 6:24; Jer 49:24; Jer 50:43; Joh 16:21); of distress of soul as the result of sin and wickedness (Job 15:24; Pro 1:27; Rom 2:9); of anguish of spirit through the cruel bondage of slavery (Exo 6:9) and Assyrian oppression (Isa 8:22); of the anxiety and pain of Christian love because of the sins of fellow-disciples (2Co 2:4).<\/p>\n
see AFFLICTION (No. 4). <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
lit., “narrowness of place” (stenos, “narrow,” chora, “a place”), metaphorically came to mean the “distress arising from that condition, anguish.” It is used in the plural, of various forms of distress, 2Co 6:4<\/span>; 2Co 12:10<\/span>, and of “anguish” or distress in general, Rom 2:9<\/span>; Rom 8:35<\/span>, RV, “anguish” for AV, “distress.” The opposite state, of being in a large place, and so metaphorically in a state of joy, is represented by the word platusmos in certian Psalms as, e.g., Psa 118:5<\/span>; see also 2Sa 22:20<\/span>.

See DISTRESS, STRAITENED. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n akin to A, No. 3, lit., “to hold together,” is used physically of being held, or thronged, Luk 8:45<\/span>; Luk 19:43<\/span>; Luk 22:63<\/span>; of being taken with a malady, Mat 4:24<\/span>; Luk 4:38<\/span>; Act 28:8<\/span>; with fear, Luk 8:37<\/span>; of being straitened or pressed in spirit, with desire, Luk 12:50<\/span>; Act 18:5<\/span>; Phi 1:23<\/span>; with the love of Christ, 2Co 5:14<\/span>. In one place it is used of the stopping of their ears by those who killed Stephen. See CONSTRAIN, HOLD, KEEP, PRESS, SICK (lie), STOP, STRAIT (be in a), STRAITENED, TAKE, THRONG. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n in the Middle and Passive Voices, signifies “to suffer pain, be in anguish, be greatly distressed” (akin to odune, “pain, distress”); it is rendered “sorrowing” in Luk 2:48<\/span>; in Luk 16:24-25<\/span>, RV, “in anguish,” for AV, “tormented;” in Act 20:38<\/span>, “sorrowing.” See SORROW, TORMENT. <\/p>\n Anguish angwish: Extreme distress of body, mind or spirit; excruciating pain or suffering of soul, e.g. excessive grief, remorse, despair.
