Context — The Faith of the Centuriongenerated
Luke 7:4 recounts how Jewish elders approached Jesus, pleading for a centurion's servant. They emphasized the centurion's worthiness due to his love for the nation and his contributions, including building a synagogue. This interaction demonstrates the faith of the centurion and the respect he commanded among the Jewish community, setting the stage for Jesus' eventual response and miracle.

The Key Word — ἄξιος, axiosgenerated
The word ἄξιος is an adjective meaning 'worthy' or 'deserving.' It indicates a quality of merit or suitability, often used to describe someone who has earned respect or honor. In this context, it highlights the centurion's character and actions that justify the request made to Jesus.
The parsing shows that it is in the nominative case, singular, masculine, referring specifically to the centurion. This grammatical structure emphasizes his individual worthiness in the eyes of the Jewish elders.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the word worthy is used, which is consistent with the KJV and ASV. All three translations convey the centurion's merit as a basis for the request.
However, the translations differ in the rendering of the verb ἐστιν. The KJV uses he was, while the ASV and others maintain he is. This distinction highlights the ongoing relevance of the centurion's worthiness.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is παρεκάλουν, they were begging, which governs the actions of the subject, the Jewish elders. This verb is accompanied by a participial phrase παραγενόμενοι, having come, indicating their approach to Jesus.
The structure includes a series of clauses that provide context and detail about the request being made. The elders express their plea and the reason for the centurion's worthiness, culminating in the indirect object ᾧ, to whom, indicating the recipient of the action.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
παραγίνομαι is the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew בּוֹא, meaning 'to come' or 'to arrive.' This connection emphasizes the act of approaching, which is central to the narrative in both the New Testament and the Septuagint.
The term ἄξιος corresponds to the Hebrew שָׁוָה, which also conveys a sense of worthiness or equality. This shared meaning across both texts highlights the universal concept of merit in different cultural contexts.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Luke 7:4 describes how Jewish elders came to Jesus to ask for help on behalf of a centurion. They argued that he was worthy of Jesus' assistance because he loved their nation and built their synagogue. This shows the centurion's good standing and the respect he had earned.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
They believed he was deserving of Jesus' help because of his good deeds, including his love for their nation and his contributions.
It indicates that his actions and character earned him respect and merit in the eyes of the Jewish elders, justifying their request to Jesus.
The centurion's faith is demonstrated through the elders' plea, showing that he trusted in Jesus' authority and ability to heal, even from a distance.
We can learn the importance of humility and the impact of good deeds in building relationships and gaining respect within our communities.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways can I demonstrate worthiness in my own life, similar to the centurion?
- How can I support and advocate for others in need, as the Jewish elders did?
- What does it mean to have faith in Jesus' ability to help us, even when we feel unworthy?
- How can I show love and respect to those around me, regardless of their background or status?

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
At illi cum venissent ad Jesum, rogabant eum sollicite, dicentes ei : Quia dignus est ut hoc illi præstes :
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܐܬܘ ܠܘܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܢܗ ܒܛܝܠܐܝܬ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܫܘܐ ܗܘ ܕܬܥܒܕ ܠܗ ܗܕܐ
The Bible of the Syriac-speaking church, in the language nearest to the Aramaic Jesus spoke.

The map of this verse — what each word keeps company with
This is a map of two things, both counted rather than judged. Company kept: which words stand within three words of each of these, anywhere in the Greek New Testament — the thicker the line, the more often the pair meet compared with chance. Built from: the words a word is made out of, taken from its own Strong’s entry. It is not a map of meaning: nothing here claims two words mean the same thing.

The verse sits at the head of each block with the word under study lit, so you never lose your place. The panel above gives the short answer; this is the long one, and it is the part of the page worth indexing.
Every entry below is the lexicographer's own text. Imported from the CrossWire SWORD modules — Abbott-Smith, the full Liddell-Scott-Jones, Strong's, Dodson, the Intermediate LSJ, Robinson and Packard on the Greek, Webster and Cawdrey on the English the translators were using. Where a cell says a work has no entry, that work genuinely has none for this word.
The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

Is but a barb'rous skill.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

a conjunctive particle, marking the superaddition of a clause, whether in opposition or in continuation, to what has preceded, and it may be variously rendered but, on the other hand, and, also, now, etc.; καὶ δέ, when there is a special superaddition in continuation, too, yea, etc. It sometimes is found at the commencement of the apodosis of a sentence, Acts 11:17. It serves also to mark the resumption of an interrupted discourse, 2 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 2:6
δέ but: conjunctive Particle, with adversative force: it commonly answers to μέν, and may often be rendered by while, whereas, on the other hand, v. μέν:— but μέν is often omitted, δέ being used merely to pass on from one thing to another; ὣς Ἀχιλεὺς θάμβησεν, θάμβησαν δὲ καὶ ἄλλοι Il.; etc.; κινεῖ κραδίην κινεῖ δὲ χόλον Eur.

παραγίνομαι is built from the components meaning 'beside' and 'to become.' It covers a range of meanings including to approach, arrive, or stand by. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in the writings of Luke and is used to describe coming to someone's side or making an appearance, as seen in verses like Luke 7:4 and Matthew 2:1.

παραγίνομαι. The use of παραγίνομαι as a synonym for ἔρχομαι, which Thackeray (Gr. 1. p. 267) thinks may be of Ionic origin, is common in the LXX and later Greek generally (cf. Glaser De ratione, p. 36f.). In the NT it is mainly confined to the Lucan writings, but Harnack (Sayings of Jesus, p. 86) goes too far when he asserts that it is ‘‘a choicer (gewah//er) word than ἦλθον ᾿᾿: (cf. Lk 191618). This is true to about the same extent as it is that avrzve is ‘‘choicer” than come. In Witkowski’s collection of Ptolemaic private letters παραPart VI.

πρός is a preposition that indicates direction, proximity, or relation. It can be used with the genitive to denote motion from a place, with the dative for local proximity, and with the accusative to express motion towards a place or object. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as Acts 27:34 for benefit and Mark 5:11 for proximity.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

It appears frequently in the New Testament, denoting Jesus Christ, and also refers to other figures named Jesus, such as Jesus, son of Eliezer, and Jesus Justus.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

λέγω (legō) is a primary Greek verb meaning 'to say' or 'to speak.' It encompasses a range of uses, including expressing thoughts, making declarations, and narrating events. The New Testament frequently employs it in direct speech and as a way to convey meaning, such as in Matthew 27:11. Abbott-Smith notes its distinction from similar verbs like λαλέω.
In dealing with synonyms of the N. T. we plainly need not concern ourselves with such earlier, or even contemporary, uses of the words which we are discriminating, as lie altogether outside of the N. T. sphere, when these uses do not illustrate, and have not affected, their Scriptural employment. It follows from this that all those contemptuous uses of λαλεῖν as to talk at random, as one ἀθυρόστομος, or with no door to his lips, might do; of λαλιά, as chatter («Kpacia λόγου ἄλογος, Plato, Defin. 416)—for I cannot believe that we are to find this at John iv. 42—may be dismissed and set aside. The antithesis in the line of Eupolis (Meineke, /ragm. Com. Gr. p. 174), Λαλεῖν ἄριστος, ἀδυνατώτατος λέγειν, does little or nothing to illustrate the matter in hand. The distinction which indeed exists between the words may in this way be made clear. There are two leading aspects under which speech…

The Greek word ὅτι (hoti) is a conjunction primarily meaning 'that' or 'because.' It introduces objective clauses, often following verbs of perception or declaration, and can also serve as a causal particle. The New Testament frequently employs it in this way, such as in Matthew 5:4-12. There is some variation in how lexicons describe its usage, particularly regarding its pleonastic function in direct discourse.

The Greek word ἄξιος (i.e., *axios*) means 'worthy' or 'deserving,' often used in contexts of value or merit. It is derived from the root meaning 'to weigh' and can refer to both positive and negative worth. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Matthew 10:10 and Luke 3:8, where it describes what is fitting or appropriate.

εἰμί is a Greek verb meaning 'to be' or 'to exist.' It serves various functions, such as a substantive verb for persons and things, and as a copula linking subjects and predicates. The New Testament frequently uses it in passages like John 1:1 and Matthew 24:3. Notably, it can also express possibility, as seen in Hebrews 9:5.

__A ORIGIN and FORMS: οὗτος, αὕτη, τοῦτο probably arose from a reduplication of the demonstrative ὁ, ἡ, τό with insertion of -υ- (= Sanskrit Particle u), e.g. ταῦτα from τα-υ-τα: Doric dialect genitive singular feminine τούτας [Refs 5th c.BC+], etc., the latter is uncertain in [Refs 5th c.BC+], as genitive singular neuter οὕτω [Refs 3rd c.BC+]; accusative singular feminine οὕταν [Refs 6th c.BC+] —In _Attic dialect_ οὗτος was frequently strengthened by the _demonstrative_ -ί, οὑτοσί, αὑτηί, τουτί, _genitive_ τουτουί, _dative_ τουτῳί, _accusative_ τουτονί; plural nominative οὑτοιί, neuter ταυτί, etc., this man here…

Read the full entry →οὗτος demonstr. Pron. this, Lat. hic, to designate the nearer of two things, opp. to ἐκεῖνος, the more remote (cf. ὅδε), Hom., etc.
when, of two things, one precedes and the other follows, ὅδε generally refers to what follows, οὗτος to what precedes, Soph., etc.
so also, οὗτος is used emphat., generally in contempt, while ἐκεῖνος (like Lat. ille) denotes praise, ὁ πάντ᾽ ἄναλκις οὗτος, i. e. Aegisthus, id. Soph.; οὗτος ἀνήρ Plat.; τούτους τοὺς συκοφάντας id. Plat.
in attic law-language, οὗτος is commonly applied to the opponent, whether plaintiff or defendant, whereas in Lat. hic was the client, iste the opponent, Dem.
often much like an adv., in local sense (cf. ὅδε init.), τίς δ᾽ οὗτος κατὰ νῆας ἔρχεαι; who art thou here that comest . . ? Il.; often in attic, τίς οὑτοσί; who's this…
