25.143 · Attitudes and Emotions · Laugh, Cry, Groan
groan, sigh groaning or sighing as the result of deep concern or stress To groan or to sigh may be the result of quite different circumstances, and in a number of languages a clear distinction must be made in any term for groaning or sighing, depending upon the reason or basis for such an expression of emotion. In MRK 7:34 the sigh or groan would seem to be an expression of sympathy for the deaf-mute, but in ACT 7:34 the groans would be caused by severe misery and oppression.
