"Quickly see 6000 years of Bible and World History together!"
What does "whole" mean in thy faith hath made thee whole?Luke 17:19 ends with : "thy faith has made thee whole"(KJV). Many versions end with "thy faith has made thee well".So, in your study, what conclusion have you come to ???? "Whole" would imply complete restoration of body parts that were eliminated by the leprosy and elimination of the disease, whereas "well" could imply elimination of the disease and new skin where the missing body parts were. I am new to your site, and find it very interesting and well done. Thanks. Sincerely, Jim It's interesting that you should write to ask this question now since I have just been asking myself this same question. What does it mean to be made whole? I'm using these online Bible study tools I typed in whole, checked the "use study tools box" chose the new testament and the King James Version. Using this tool tells us that the Greek word for whole associated with this verse (Luke 27:19) is sojo. The lexicon gives these definitions: to save, keep safe and sound, to rescue from danger or destruction
Notice a different Greek word, hugies, is used in Mark 3:5 when Christ heals the hand of a man with palsy. The word is used specifically to refer to the hand being healed. Definition: sound of a man who is sound in body to make one whole i.e. restore him to health The only way to determine which word is used where is to click on each word and then read the verses associated with it. An interesting study. You'll enjoy it. Go to http://bible.crosswalk.com to begin. |
