Context — The Healing of the Blind Mengenerated
Matthew 9:30 describes a moment when Jesus healed two blind men, restoring their sight. Following this miraculous act, Jesus gave them a stern warning to keep the miracle private, indicating the importance of discretion in His ministry. This episode highlights both Jesus' compassion and His desire to manage the public perception of His works, as seen in other instances throughout the Gospels.

The Key Word — ἀνοίγω, anoigōgenerated
The verb ἀνοίγω (anoigo) means 'to open' and is used here in the passive form, indicating that the eyes of the blind men were opened by an external agent — Jesus. This verb captures both the literal act of restoring sight and the broader theme of revelation in the New Testament.
The aorist tense signifies a completed action, emphasizing the immediacy and effectiveness of the miracle. The passive voice suggests that the men did not open their own eyes; rather, they were opened by Jesus' command, showcasing His divine authority.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as: 'And their eyes were opened. Jesus warned them sternly, “See that no one finds out about this!”' This wording is consistent across several translations, including the KJV and ASV, which also convey the action of the eyes being opened.
However, some translations differ in the rendering of the phrase related to keeping the miracle secret. For instance, the YLT uses 'let no one know,' while the WEB states, 'that no one knows about this.' This highlights a variation in how the imperative is expressed, but the core instruction remains the same.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is ἠνεῴχθησαν, were opened, which governs the action of the sentence. The structure includes a subject noun phrase, οἱ ὀφθαλμοί, the eyes, and follows with a subordinate clause where Jesus gives a warning.
The clause structure indicates that the opening of the eyes is the primary action, while the warning from Jesus serves as an important directive following the miracle. This reflects a common pattern in Greek prose where the main action is highlighted, followed by additional information.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἠνεῴχθησαν does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint for this specific context, but the concept of opening eyes is represented in various passages, such as פָּתַח (pāṭaḥ) in the Hebrew Scriptures, which conveys similar meanings of revealing or making accessible.
This connection emphasizes the continuity of the theme of divine revelation and healing from the Old Testament to the New Testament, where Jesus embodies the fulfillment of these prophetic acts.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Matthew 9:30 tells us that Jesus healed two blind men, restoring their sight. After this miracle, He instructed them to keep it a secret, showing His desire for discretion in His ministry. This event illustrates Jesus' compassion and authority over physical blindness.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
It signifies a miraculous restoration of sight, highlighting Jesus' power to heal physical ailments and bring about spiritual enlightenment.
Jesus often sought to manage the timing and nature of His public ministry, wanting to avoid premature recognition or misunderstanding of His mission.
Similar to other accounts, this miracle emphasizes Jesus' authority and compassion, but the instruction for secrecy is a unique aspect that appears in several healing narratives.
Their immediate obedience in following Jesus' instruction can serve as a model for how we should respond to divine encounters in our own lives.

Early church Fathers commented on this passage, reflecting on the nature of Jesus' instructions and the implications of His miracles.
And Jesus warned them, saying, "See that no one knows." But when they went out, they spread the news about him throughout that whole land. And the Lord, fleeing the glory of boastfulness because of his humility, had commanded this.Early Church Fathers on Matthew 9 →

It is as if our Lord saw the garrulous joy on the point of uttering itself, and sought by every means in His power to restrain it. The reasons may be sought, as elsewhere, either (1) in its being good for the spiritual life of the men themselves that they should show forth their praise of God, not with their lips, but in their lives; or (2) in the shrinking from mere notoriety, from the gaze of crowds drawn together…

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.
Et aperti sunt oculi eorum : et comminatus est illis Jesus, dicens : Videte ne quis sciat.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

ἀνοίγω (anoigo) means 'to open' and is derived from the components ἀνά and οἴγω. It covers a range of meanings, from physically opening doors or gates (Acts 5:19) to metaphorically opening opportunities or welcoming (Revelation 3:20). The verb appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts of spiritual or divine revelation.

Counted over the 82 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.

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.

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.

The Greek word ὀφθαλμός (transliterated as ophthalmos) means 'eye' and is used both literally and figuratively. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often relating to physical sight, metaphorical vision, and ethical qualities like envy. The word is derived from roots associated with seeing and encompasses a range of meanings, including the eye's role in perception and understanding.

Counted over the 302 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef. Ellicott on Phil. iv. 12; on the difference between it and τέ see 8. v. τέ ad init. ] I. It serves as a copulative i.e. to connect (Lat. et, atque, Germ. und) ; 1. it connects single words or terms: a. univ., as of Φαρισαῖοι καὶ Σαδδουκαῖοι, Mt. xvi. 1; ὁ θεὸς καὶ πατήρ, he who is God and Father (see θεός, 3); ἐν καρδίᾳ καλῇ καὶ ἀγαθῇ, Lk. viii. 15; πολυμερῶς καὶ πολυτρόπως, ΗΘ}. 1. 1; it is repeated before single terms, to each of which its own force and weight is thus given: ἡ υἱοθεσία καὶ ἡ δόξα καὶ ai διαθῆκαι καὶ ἡ νομοθεσία καὶ ἡ λατρεία καὶ αἱ ἐπαγγελίαι, Ro. ix. 4 ; ἁγία καὶ δικαία καὶ ἀγαθή, Ro. vii. 12; add, Mt. xxiii. 23; Lk. xiv. 21; Jn. xvi. 8; Acts xv. 20, 29; xxi. 25; Heb. ix. 10; Rey. v. 12; xviii. 12 sq.; ef.

The Greek word ἐμβριμάομαι (*embrimaomai*) is built from the prefix ἐν and a root meaning to snort with anger. It covers a range of meanings including to express deep emotion, to admonish sternly, or to show indignation. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts of strong emotional response, particularly in John and Mark, where it conveys urgency or rebuke.
ἐμ-βριμάομαι (T, -έομαι; Bl., § 22, 1), -ῶμαι
(< βρίμη, strength, bulk, whence βριμάομαι, to snort with anger),
depon., with aor. mid. and pass.,
[in LXX (Hatch, Essays, 25): Da LXX 11:30 (also Aq., Ps 7:12; Sm., Is 17:13) * ;]
to snort in (of horses, Æsch.), hence, to speak or act with deep feeling (DCG, i, 62b);
ἐμβριμάομαι. We can produce no fresh evidence to throw light on the meaning of this difficult verb in the NT, but the LXX
ἐμβριμάομαι (embrimaomai) — be agitated.
ἐμβρῑμ-άομαι
(active only in [Refs 5th c.AD+], with aorist middle et passive, snort in, ἵππους ἐν ἀμπυκτῆρσιν ἐμβριμωμένας, of horses, [Refs 4th c.BC+]
2. of persons, to be deeply moved, τῷ πνεύματι, ἐν ἑαυτῷ, [NT]
II. admonish urgently, rebuke, [NT+5th c.BC+]
ἐμβριμάομαι
embrimaomai
from 1722 and brimaomai (to snort with anger); to have indignation on,
i.e. (transitively) to blame, (intransitively) to sigh with chagrin,
(specially) to sternly enjoin:--straitly charge, groan, murmur
against.

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.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences.

The Greek word Ἰησοῦς (*Iēsous*) refers primarily to Jesus, the Savior, and is derived from the Hebrew name Joshua or Jehoshua. 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. The entries consistently identify it as a common name among Israelites.

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 ὁράω (i.e., *horaō*) means 'to see' and is derived from various roots. It encompasses physical sight, mental perception, and the act of attending to or experiencing something. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts such as visiting others (Luke 8:20) and discerning spiritual truths (Romans 15:21). Different lexicons note variations in its grammatical forms and uses, particularly regarding its aorist tense.

μηδείς is built from μή (not) and εἷς (one), meaning no one or nothing. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often to emphasize absence or negation, as seen in verses like Matthew 8:4 and Acts 4:17. The lexicons do not present significant disagreement on its usage.

According to Thumb ( 7ε]16᾽1. p. 14) the forms μηθείς and οὐθείς appear in the whole Greek world from iv/B.c., and are in wide use at the beginning of the Christian Era, after which they gradually disappear, without leaving any trace in | B Lond’ 42%* (gic: MGr.
