rwp@Mark:6:48 @{Seeing them distressed in rowing} (\idn autous basanizomenous en ti elaunein\). See also strkjv@Matthew:8:29| for the word \basaniz\, to torture, torment (Matthew:4:24|) with a touch-stone, then to distress as here. Papyri have \dia basann\ used on slaves like our third degree for criminals. \Elaunein\ is literally to drive as of ships or chariots. They drove the boat with oars. Common in Xenophon for marching. {About the fourth watch of the night} (\peri tetartn phulakn ts nuktos\). That is, between three and six A.M. The wind was {contrary to them} (\enantios autois\), that is in their faces and rowing was difficult, "a great wind" (John:6:18|), and as a result the disciples had made little progress. They should have been over long before this. {And he would have passed by them} (\kai thelen parelthein autous\). Only in Mark. He wished to pass by them, _praeterire eos_ (Vulgate).

rwp@Matthew:8:6 @{Grievously tormented} (\deins basanizomenos\). Participle present passive from root \basanos\ (see on ¯Matthew:4:24|). The boy (\pais\), slave (\doulos\, strkjv@Luke:7:2|), was a bedridden (\bebltai\, perfect passive indicative of \ball\) paralytic.

rwp@Matthew:14:24 @{Distressed} (\basanizomenon\). Like a man with demons (8:29|). One can see, as Jesus did (Mark:6:48|), the boat bobbing up and down in the choppy sea.

rwp@Revelation:12:2 @{And she was with child} (\kai en gastri echousa\). Perhaps \estin\ to be supplied or the participle used as a finite verb as in strkjv@10:2|. This is the technical idiom for pregnancy as in strkjv@Matthew:1:18,23|, etc. {Travailing in birth} (\dinousa\). Present active participle of \din\, old verb (from \din\ birth-pangs strkjv@1Thessalonians:5:3|), in N.T. only here and strkjv@Galatians:4:27|. {And in pain} (\kai basanizomen\). "And tormented" (present passive participle of \basaniz\, for which see already strkjv@9:5; strkjv@11:10|), only here in N.T. in sense of childbirth. {To be delivered} (\tekein\). Second aorist active infinitive of \tikt\, to give birth, epexegetical use. Also in verse 4|.
