It emphasizes the arduous nature of an action or situation, often highlighting the challenges or obstacles involved.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of toil and difficulty was a common experience, especially in the context of labor and daily life. The use of "mogis" in the New Testament reflects the reality of human struggle and the perseverance required to overcome challenges. This term would resonate with early Christian audiences who often faced persecution and hardship for their faith.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 3425</b> <i>mógis</i>(from <i>mogos</i>, "laborious toil") – properly, <i>scarcely</i> (<i>barely</i>), i.e. what happens with <i>great difficulty</i>. <a href="/greek/3425.htm">3425</a> <i>/mógis</i> ("scarcely") also stresses the <i>prolonged nature</i> of an action – which itself makes the action <i>very difficult</i>. <a href="/greek/3433.htm">See 3433</a> (<i>mólis</i>).</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>another reading for <a href="/greek/3433.htm">molis</a>, q.v.<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 3425: μόγις</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">μόγις</span></span> (<span class="greek2">μόγος</span> toil), from <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span> down, <span class="accented">hardly, with difficulty</span>: <a href="/interlinear/luke/9-39.htm">Luke 9:39</a> (yet <span class="manuref">WH</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> marginal reading <span class="greek2">μόλις</span>, which see).
