Bible Question: What does "touch" mean in the ancient Greek? I am curious to what "touch" would have meant in the time period of when the book was written. |
Bible Answer: Hi, G14... Welcome to the forum! The word means just what it means in English. You might want to compare the other verses where it is used to verify this for yourself. It is used in the following verses: Matthew 8:3, 15; 9:20, 21, 29; 14:36; 17:7; 20:34; Mark 1:41; 3:10; 5:27, 28, 30, 31; 6:56; 7:33; 8:22; 10:13; Luke 5:13; 6:19; 7:14, 39; 8:44, 45, 46, 47; 18:15; 22:51; John 20:17; 1 Corinthians 7:1; 2 Corinthians 6:17; Colossians 2:21; 1 John 5:18.
