lit., “to be weak, feeble” (a, negative, sthenos, “strength”), is translated “to be sick,” e.g., in Mat 10:8<\/span>, “(the) sick;” Mat 25:36<\/span>; Mat 25:39<\/span> in the best texts (some have B, No. 1); Mar 6:56<\/span>; Luk 4:40<\/span>; Luk 7:10<\/span> (RV omits the word); Luk 9:2<\/span>; Joh 4:46<\/span>; Joh 5:3<\/span>, RV (AV, “impotent folk”); Joh 5:7<\/span>; Joh 6:2<\/span>, RV (AV, “were diseased”); 11:1-3,6; Act 9:37<\/span>; Act 19:12<\/span>; Phi 2:26-27<\/span>; 2Ti 4:20<\/span>; Jam 5:14<\/span>. See DISEASED, B, No. 1, IMPOTENT, and, especially, WEAK. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n primarily, “to work,” hence, from the effect of constant work, “to be weary,” Heb 12:3<\/span>, is rendered “(him) that is sick,” in Jam 5:15<\/span>, RV, AV “(the) sick.” The choice of this verb instead of the repetition of No. 1 (Jam 5:14<\/span>, see above), is suggestive of the common accompaniment of “sickness,” “weariness of mind” (which is the meaning of this verb), which not infrequently hinders physical recovery; hence this special cause is here intimated in the general idea of “sickness.” In some mss. it occurs in Rev 2:3<\/span>. In the Sept., Job 10:1<\/span>; Job 17:2<\/span>. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “to hold in, hold fast,” is used, in the Passive Voice, of “being seized or afficted by ills,” Act 28:8<\/span>, “sick” (of the father of Publius, cp. Mat 4:24<\/span>; Luk 4:38<\/span>, “taken with”). See CONSTRAIN, No. 3. <\/p>\n Notes: (1) Noseo, “to be sick,” is used metaphorically of mental ailment, in 1Ti 6:4<\/span>, “doting” (marg., “sick”). (2) The adverb kakos, “evilly ill,” with echo, “to hold, to have,” is rendered “to be sick,” in Mat 4:24<\/span>, RV, “that were sick;” Mat 8:16<\/span>; Mat 9:12<\/span>; Mat 14:35<\/span>; Mar 1:32<\/span>, RV (AV, “diseased”); Mar 1:34<\/span>; Mar 2:17<\/span>; Mar 6:55<\/span>; Luk 5:31<\/span>; Luk 7:2<\/span>. (3) For “sick of the palsy,” Luk 5:24<\/span>; Act 9:33<\/span>, see PALSY (sick of). <\/p>\n<\/p>\n lit., “without strength,” hence, “feeble, weak,” is used of “bodily debility,” Mat 25:43<\/span> (for Mat 25:39<\/span>, see A, No. 1), Mat 25:44<\/span>; some texts have it in Luk 9:2<\/span> (the best omit it, the meaning being “to heal” in general); Luk 10:9<\/span>; Act 5:15-16<\/span>; in Act 4:9<\/span> it is rendered “impotent.” See FEEBLE, IMPOTENT, WEAK. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “feeble, sickly” (a, negative, rhonnumi, “to be strong”), is translated “sick” in Mat 14:14<\/span>; Mar 16:18<\/span>; “sick folk” in Mar 6:5<\/span>; “that were sick” in Mar 6:13<\/span>; “sickly” in 1Co 11:30<\/span>, here also of the physical state. In the Sept., 1Ki 14:5<\/span>; Mal 1:8<\/span>. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n “weakness, sickness” (akin to A, No. 1 and B, No. 1), is translated “sickness” in Joh 11:4<\/span>. See DISEASE, No. 1, INFIRMITY, WEAKNESS. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n see DISEASE, No. 3. <\/p>\n Sick, Sickly, Sickness lit., “to be weak, feeble” (a, negative, sthenos, “strength”), is translated “to be sick,” e.g., in Mat 10:8, “(the) sick;” Mat 25:36; Mat 25:39 in the best texts (some have B, No. 1); Mar 6:56; Luk 4:40; Luk 7:10 (RV omits the word); Luk 9:2; Joh 4:46; Joh 5:3, RV (AV, “impotent … Continue reading “Sick, Sickly, Sickness”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-84747","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-encyclopedic-dictionary"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/dictionaries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/84747","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/dictionaries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/dictionaries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/dictionaries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/dictionaries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=84747"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/dictionaries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/84747\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/dictionaries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=84747"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/dictionaries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=84747"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/dictionaries\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=84747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Fuente: Vine’s Dictionary of New Testament Words<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
