NT.filter - rwp Bowels:

rwp@Luke:1:78 @{Tender mercy} (\splagchna eleous\). Bowels of mercy literally (1Peter:3:8; strkjv@James:3:11|). Revised margin has it, hearts of mercy. {The dayspring from on high} (\anatol ex hupsous\). Literally, rising from on high, like the rising sun or stars (Isaiah:60:19|). The word is used also of a sprouting plant or branch (Jeremiah:23:5; strkjv@Zechariah:6:12|), but that does not suit here. {Shall visit} (\epeskepsetai\), correct text, cf. strkjv@1:68|.

rwp@Matthew:14:14 @{Their sick} (\tous arrstous autn\). "Without strength" (\rhnnumi\ and \a\ privative). \Esplagchnisth\ is a deponent passive. The verb gives the oriental idea of the bowels (\splagchna\) as the seat of compassion.

rwp@Philippians:1:8 @{My witness} (\martus mou\). Same solemn oath in strkjv@Romans:1:9|. {I long after} (\epipoth\). Longing (\pothos\) directed toward (\epi\) the Philippians. Old word, chiefly in Paul in N.T. {In the tender mercies} (\en splagchnois\). Literally "in the bowels" as the seat of the affections.
