Cross References
| Strong's | Original | Transliteration | Derivation | Definition | KJV Renderings |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| G2759 | κέντρον | kéntron | from κεντέω (kentéō) (to prick) | a point ("centre"), i.e. a sting (figuratively, poison) or goad (figuratively, divine impulse) | prick, sting |
| G3700 | ὀπτάνομαι | optánomai | a (middle voice) prolonged form of the primary (middle voice) ὄπτομαι (óptomai) op'-tom-ahee; which is used for it in certain tenses; and both as alternate of G3708 | to gaze (i.e. with wide-open eyes, as at something remarkable; and thus differing from G991, which denotes simply voluntary observation; and from G1492, which expresses merely mechanical, passive or casual vision; while G2300, and still more emphatically its intensive G2334, signifies an earnest but more continued inspection; and G4648 a watching from a distance) | appear, look, see, shew self |
Sources. The definition, derivation and KJV renderings are James Strong's own wording from Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible (1890) — public domain. The numbered senses and the Hebrew–Greek cross-references are the editorial work of the OpenScriptures Strong's dictionary, licensed CC BY-SA 3.0; their sense-outline conventions match the Outline of Biblical Usage (Online Bible, Larry Pierce), noted as a convention match rather than a documented claim.
