It conveys a state of weakness or lack of health, often necessitating healing or medical attention. In the context of the New Testament, it is frequently associated with those who are in need of Jesus' healing power.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the first-century Greco-Roman world, illness was often viewed as a physical and spiritual condition. Medical knowledge was limited, and many illnesses were attributed to spiritual causes or divine displeasure. Healing was sought through various means, including traditional medicine, religious rituals, and appeals to deities. In Jewish culture, illness could also be seen as a result of sin, and healing was a sign of God's forgiveness and favor.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>732</b> <i>árrhōstos</i> (from <a href="/greek/1.htm">1</a> <i>/A</i>, "not" and <a href="/greek/4517.htm">4517</a> <i>/rhṓnnymi</i>, "leave, depart") – properly, a <i>persisting</i> illness – literally, one "that will<i> not leave</i>"; <i>chronic</i> ill-health.</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>from <a href="/greek/1.htm">alpha</a> (as a neg. prefix) and <a href="/greek/4517.htm">rhónnumi</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>not strong, i.e. feeble, sickly<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>sick (3), sick people (2).<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 732: ἄρρωστος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἄρρωστος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἄρρωστον</span> (<span class="greek2">ῤώννυμι</span>, which see), <span class="accented">wihtout strength, weak; sick</span>: <a href="/interlinear/matthew/14-14.htm">Matthew 14:14</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/6-5.htm">Mark 6:5, 13</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/16-18.htm">Mark 16:18</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_corinthians/11-30.htm">1 Corinthians 11:30</a>.
