33.477 &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957;, &#959;&#965; n: an event which is regarded as having some special meaning - 'sign.' &#949;&#7984;&#960;&#8050; &#7969;&#956;&#8150;&#957; ... &#964;&#8055; &#964;&#8056; &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; &#964;&#8134;&#962; &#963;&#8134;&#962; &#960;&#945;&#961;&#959;&#965;&#963;&#8055;&#945;&#962; 'tell us ... what will be the sign of your coming' Mt 24.3. In translating &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; in Mt 24.3, it may be necessary in some languages to say 'tell us what will happen that will show that you are coming' or 'tell us what we will see that will make us know that you are coming.'
&#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; as an event with special meaning was inevitably an unusual or even miraculous type of occurrence, and in a number of contexts &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; may be rendered as 'miracle.' Certainly that is the referent of the term &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; in Jn 2.23 (&#960;&#959;&#955;&#955;&#959;&#8054; &#7952;&#960;&#8055;&#963;&#964;&#949;&#965;&#963;&#945;&#957; &#949;&#7984;&#962; &#964;&#8056; &#8004;&#957;&#959;&#956;&#945; &#945;&#8016;&#964;&#959;&#8166;, &#952;&#949;&#969;&#961;&#959;&#8166;&#957;&#964;&#949;&#962; &#945;&#8016;&#964;&#959;&#8166; &#964;&#8048; &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#945; &#7939; &#7952;&#960;&#959;&#8055;&#949;&#953; 'many believed in him as they saw the signs he did').

For the Gospel of John, however, a &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; is not simply a miraculous event but something which points to a reality with even greater significance. A strictly literal translation of &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; as 'sign' might mean nothing more than a road sign or a sign on a building, and therefore in some languages &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; in a context such as Jn 2.23 may be rendered as 'a miracle with great meaning.'

&#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957;,
(1) “sign,” “seal”: cf.

(2) “outward distinguishing mark”: cf.

In P Amh II. 392 (late ii/B.C.) A military corps of youths are described as &#959;&#7985; @&#7952;&#954;] &#964;&#959;&#8166; &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8055;&#959;&#965; &#957;&#949;&#945;&#957;&#8055;&#963;&#954;&#959;&#953;, and for &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; as an index of inward character, as in 2 Cor 1212, cf. a rescript of Hadrian Syll 384 (= 3 831)14 (A.D. 117) &#7969;&#947;&#959;&#8059;&#956;&#951;&#957; &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#945; &#7936;&#947;&#945;&#952;&#8182;&#957; &#7936;&#957;&#948;&#961;&#8182;&#957; &#964;&#8048; &#964;&#959;&#953;&#945;&#8166;&#964;&#945; &#949;&#7990;&#957;&#945;&#953;.
(3) In P Oxy II. 2936 (A.D. 27) &#959;&#8020;&#964;&#949; &#948;&#953;&#8048; &#947;&#961;&#945;&#960;&#964;&#959;&#8166; &#959;&#8020;&#964;&#949; &#948;&#953;&#8048; &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;<&#8055;>&#959;&#965;, the editors understand the meaning to be “either by letter or by message,” and so Wilcken Archiv iv. p. 259. Similarly in P Fay 1286 (iii/A.D.), P Oxy IV. 7243 (A.D. 155) of tachygraphic signs. In ib. XIV. 16359 (B.C. 44–37), a document dealing with the cession of catoecic land, &#964;&#959;&#8150;&#962; &#7940;&#955;&#955;&#959;&#953;&#962; &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8055;&#959;&#953;&#962; seems to refer to “boundary-marks” rather than to “title-deeds”: cf. ib. III. 50415 (early ii/A.D.) and the note to P Ryl II. 15915. See also Syll 929 (= 3 685)70, 75 (B.C. 139).
(4) For &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; in its NT sense of “miracle” or “wonder” (Mt 1238 f., al.), we may cite Syll 326 (= 3 709)25 (c. B.C. 107) &#960;&#961;&#959;&#949;&#963;&#8049;&#956;&#945;&#957;&#949; &#956;&#8050;&#957; &#964;&#8048;&#957; &#956;&#8051;&#955;&#955;&#959;&#965;&#963;&#945;&#957; &#947;&#8055;&#957;&#949;&#963;&#952;&#945;&#953; &#960;&#961;&#8118;&#958;&#953;&#957; @&#948;&#953;&#8048; &#964;]&#8182;&#957; &#7952;&#957; &#964;&#8182;&#953; &#7985;&#949;&#961;&#8182;&#953; &#947;&#949;&#957;&#959;&#956;&#8051;&#957;&#969;&#957; &#963;&#945;&#956;&#949;&#8055;&#969;&#957;, and for the meaning “proof,” see the illiterate P Oxy XIV. 168318 (late iv/A.D.) &#963;&#951;&#956;&#8055;&#959;&#965; &#948;&#8050; &#967;&#8049;&#961;&#953;&#957;. Deissmann (LAE2, p. 167) has pointed out that in 2 Thess 317 &#963;&#951;&#956;&#949;&#8150;&#959;&#957; has the same force as the &#963;&#8059;&#956;&#946;&#959;&#955;&#959;&#957; which in other cases was given to the bearer of a letter in proof of his commission, cf. e.g. P Passalacqua15 (iii/B.C.) (= Witkowski Epp.2, p. 54) &#7936;&#960;&#949;&#948;&#8057;&#952;&#951; &#964;&#8049;&#948;&#8125; &#945;&#8016;&#964;&#8182;&#953; &#954;&#945;&#8054; &#964;&#8056; &#963;&#8059;&#956;&#946;&#959;&#955;&#959;&#957; &#964;&#8182;&#957; &#7952;&#947;.

CF seems to have a problem with the Greek letter 'x' where it employs 'y'and 'Pi' is not all that clear.

23.142 x&#8049;&#956;&#957;&#969;: to be ill, with a possible implication of being worn-out or wasting away - 'to be sick, to be very sick.' &#7969; &#949;&#8016;&#967;&#8052; &#964;&#8134;&#962; &#960;&#8055;&#963;&#964;&#949;&#969;&#962; &#963;&#8061;&#963;&#949;&#953; &#964;&#8056;&#957; &#954;&#8049;&#956;&#957;&#959;&#957;&#964;&#945; 'prayer made in faith will make the sick man well' Jas 5.15.
As in the case of expressions for health and vigor, it may also be necessary in some languages to specify more precisely the nature of the illness, disease, or weakness. Often the context provides a clue, but in some instances this is not possible, in which case it is important to try to employ a term for sickness or illness which will be the most generalized.

23.147 &#7940;&#961;&#961;&#969;&#963;&#964;&#959;&#962;, &#959;&#957;: to be sick or ill, as a state of powerlessness - 'to be sick, sick, ill.' &#7952;&#952;&#949;&#961;&#8049;&#960;&#949;&#965;&#963;&#949;&#957; &#964;&#959;&#8058;&#962; &#7936;&#961;&#961;&#8061;&#963;&#964;&#959;&#965;&#962; &#945;&#8016;&#964;&#8182;&#957; 'he healed their sick' Mt 14.14.

23.154 &#956;&#945;&#955;&#945;&#954;&#8055;&#945;, &#945;&#962; f: a state of weakness resulting from disease - 'disease, sickness.' &#952;&#949;&#961;&#945;&#960;&#949;&#8059;&#969;&#957; &#960;&#8118;&#963;&#945;&#957; &#957;&#8057;&#963;&#959;&#957; &#954;&#945;&#8054; &#960;&#8118;&#963;&#945;&#957; &#956;&#945;&#955;&#945;&#954;&#8055;&#945;&#957; &#7952;&#957; &#964;&#8183; &#955;&#945;&#8183; 'healing people from every kind of disease and sickness' Mt 4.23.

60.46 &#960;&#961;&#8182;&#964;&#959;&#962;, &#951;, &#959;&#957; ; &#945;: first in a series involving time, space, or set - 'first.' &#960;&#961;&#8182;&#964;&#959;&#962;: &#960;&#961;&#8182;&#964;&#959;&#962; &#7952;&#958; &#7936;&#957;&#945;&#963;&#964;&#8049;&#963;&#949;&#969;&#962; &#957;&#949;&#954;&#961;&#8182;&#957; 'first to rise from the dead' Ac 26.23; &#960;&#961;&#959;&#963;&#949;&#955;&#952;&#8060;&#957; &#964;&#8183; &#960;&#961;&#8061;&#964;&#8179; 'he came to the first (son)' Mt 21.28; &#7972;&#961;&#958;&#945;&#964;&#959; &#955;&#8051;&#947;&#949;&#953;&#957; &#960;&#961;&#8056;&#962; &#964;&#959;&#8058;&#962; &#956;&#945;&#952;&#951;&#964;&#8048;&#962; &#945;&#8016;&#964;&#959;&#8166; &#960;&#961;&#8182;&#964;&#959;&#957; 'he began to speak first to his disciples' Lk 12.1; &#963;&#954;&#951;&#957;&#8052; &#947;&#8048;&#961; &#954;&#945;&#964;&#949;&#963;&#954;&#949;&#965;&#8049;&#963;&#952;&#951; &#7969; &#960;&#961;&#8061;&#964;&#951; 'for the first tent was put up' He 9.2. In He 9.2 &#960;&#961;&#8182;&#964;&#959;&#962; must, however, be understood in the sense of the outer tent, which was the first one to which a person came in entering the sanctuary. &#945; (occurring only in titles of NT writings): &#960;&#961;&#8056;&#962; &#922;&#959;&#961;&#953;&#957;&#952;&#8055;&#959;&#965;&#962; &#945; 'First Letter to the Corinthians'; &#7992;&#969;&#8049;&#957;&#957;&#959;&#965; &#945; 'First Epistle of John.'

74.23 &#7936;&#963;&#952;&#8051;&#957;&#949;&#953;&#945;, &#945;&#962; f: a state of incapacity to do or experience something - 'incapacity, weakness, limitation.' &#7973;&#948;&#953;&#963;&#964;&#945; &#959;&#8022;&#957; &#956;&#8118;&#955;&#955;&#959;&#957; &#954;&#945;&#965;&#967;&#8053;&#963;&#959;&#956;&#945;&#953; &#7952;&#957; &#964;&#945;&#8150;&#962; &#7936;&#963;&#952;&#949;&#957;&#949;&#8055;&#945;&#953;&#962; &#956;&#959;&#965; 'I am happy then to be proud of my weaknesses' 2 Cor 12.9b; &#7969; &#947;&#8048;&#961; &#948;&#8059;&#957;&#945;&#956;&#953;&#962; &#7952;&#957; &#7936;&#963;&#952;&#949;&#957;&#949;&#8055;&#8115; &#964;&#949;&#955;&#949;&#8150;&#964;&#945;&#953; 'power is made complete in weakness' 2 Cor 12.9a. A literal rendering of this expression in 2 Cor 12.9 may not be meaningful, and in fact can be quite misleading. &#948;&#8059;&#957;&#945;&#956;&#953;&#962; is best interpreted as 'God's power' and &#7936;&#963;&#952;&#8051;&#957;&#949;&#953;&#945; as the weakness which Paul experienced. Therefore, one may be able to translate as 'my power is greatest when you are weak' (see Today's English Version).

In a number of languages health is expressed only in terms of strength, for 'to be well' is 'to be strong.' In other languages, however, to be well or to be healthy is a negation of illness or sickness, so that in Mk 16.18 one may translate 'they will place their hands on those who are sick and these people will become not sick.'
