Context — Jesus Heals a Crippled Womangenerated
Luke 13:12 recounts a moment when Jesus, seeing a woman who had been disabled for eighteen years, calls her to Him and declares her freedom from her infirmity. This act of healing demonstrates Jesus' compassion and authority over physical ailments, as well as His disregard for the strict Sabbath laws that the synagogue leader upheld. The surrounding context highlights the tension between Jesus' ministry and the established religious norms, as seen in verses 11–14.

The Key Word — ἀπολύω, apoluōgenerated
The word ἀπολύω is a perfect passive indicative verb, indicating that the action of being released has been completed with ongoing effects. It implies that the woman has not only been set free from her physical ailment but also that this freedom is now a permanent state.
This verb is often used in the context of liberation, whether from physical, spiritual, or moral bondage, emphasizing the transformative power of Jesus' words and actions.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as: 'When Jesus saw her, He called her over and said, “Woman, you are set free from your disability.”' This wording is consistent across several translations, including the KJV and ASV, which similarly emphasize the act of calling and the declaration of freedom.
However, some versions differ slightly in their choice of words. For instance, the KJV uses 'loosed from thine infirmity,' while the WEB opts for 'freed from your infirmity.' These variations reflect different nuances in the translation of the Greek term.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the sentence is ἰδὼν, having seen, which governs the entire clause. Following this are three phrases: the direct object αὐτὴν, her, the verb προσεφώνησεν, called, and the subsequent clause where Jesus speaks to her.
The structure shows a clear progression: Jesus first sees the woman, then calls her, and finally speaks to her, illustrating a moment of divine interaction and healing.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἀσθένεια is used in the Septuagint to translate the Hebrew word אִשָּׁה, which conveys the idea of weakness or sickness. This connection underscores the continuity of the concept of physical and spiritual infirmity from the Old Testament to the New Testament.
The term ἰδὼν also appears in the Septuagint, often associated with divine perception, indicating God's awareness of human suffering and the subsequent action taken to alleviate it.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Luke 13:12 tells us that Jesus saw a woman who had been disabled for eighteen years. He called her over and said, 'Woman, you are set free from your disability.' This moment illustrates Jesus' compassion and His power to heal, showing that He cares for those who are suffering.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated

Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.

The Greek word οἶδα (i.e., *oida*) is derived from the root of εἶδον (i.e., *eidon*), meaning 'to see' or 'to perceive.' It primarily conveys the idea of knowing or having knowledge, often used in contexts where one has seen or understood something. The New Testament employs it in various constructions, indicating knowledge of things, people, or concepts.

It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

προσφωνέω is a verb meaning to address, call to, or summon. It is built from the prefix προς (toward) and φωνέω (to sound). The term appears in various contexts, including the New Testament in passages like Matthew 11:16 and Acts 22:2. It can be used with different grammatical constructions, such as calling by name or issuing directions.

προσφωνέω is included by Mayser (Gr. p. 34) among the poetical verbs which have passed into the Kowy. For the meaning “‘address,”” ‘‘ give speech to,’”’ as in Ac 227, we may cite P Petr IL. 38(4)* (B.c, 242) παρὰ δέ σου οὐθ[ὲ]ν ἡμῖν προσπεφώνηται, ‘whereas from you not a word has been uttered ’’ (Ed.), Chrest. I. 27 verso (ii/A.D.) περὶ τούτου ὡς ἔδοξεϊν], προσφωνησάτω ἡμεῖν ὁ πρυτανικός. From this it is an easy transition to the more official sense of ‘‘report,’”’ as in P Ryl II. 8319 (a.p. 138-161) where a tax-collector states to the commission appointed to receive his accounts, προσφωνῶ περὶ τοῦ μηδέν por διαγεγρά(φθαι) ὑπὲρ [λ]ημμάτων ἰδίου λόγου, ‘I report to you that nothing has been paid to me on behalf of the revenues of the privy purse’ (Edd.), BGU I. 1618 (a.p. 159-160) (= Selections, Ρ. 84) ἐπιζητοῦσι ὑμ[τ]ν εἰ [οὕ]τως ἔχει προσφωνοῦμεν, ‘to your enquiries whether these…

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

It serves as a copulative i.e. to connect (Lat. et, atque, Germ. und) ; 1. it connects single words or terms: a. univ., as of Φαρισαῖοι καὶ Σαδδουκαῖοι, Mt. xvi. 1; ὁ θεὸς καὶ πατήρ, he who is God and Father (see θεός, 3); ἐν καρδίᾳ καλῇ καὶ ἀγαθῇ, Lk. viii. 15; πολυμερῶς καὶ πολυτρόπως, ΗΘ}. 1. 1; it is repeated before single terms, to each of which its own force and weight is thus given: ἡ υἱοθεσία καὶ ἡ δόξα καὶ ai διαθῆκαι καὶ ἡ νομοθεσία καὶ ἡ λατρεία καὶ αἱ ἐπαγγελίαι, Ro. ix. 4 ; ἁγία καὶ δικαία καὶ ἀγαθή, Ro. vii. 12; add, Mt. xxiii. 23; Lk. xiv. 21; Jn. xvi. 8; Acts xv. 20, 29; xxi. 25; Heb. ix. 10; Rey. v. 12; xviii. 12 sq.; ef.

In dealing with synonyms of the N. T. we plainly need not concern ourselves with such earlier, or even contemporary, uses of the words which we are discriminating, as lie altogether outside of the N. T. sphere, when these uses do not illustrate, and have not affected, their Scriptural employment. It follows from this that all those contemptuous uses of λαλεῖν as to talk at random, as one ἀθυρόστομος, or with no door to his lips, might do; of λαλιά, as chatter («Kpacia λόγου ἄλογος, Plato, Defin. 416)—for I cannot believe that we are to find this at John iv. 42—may be dismissed and set aside. The antithesis in the line of Eupolis (Meineke, /ragm. Com. Gr. p. 174), Λαλεῖν ἄριστος, ἀδυνατώτατος λέγειν, does little or nothing to illustrate the matter in hand. The distinction which indeed exists between the words may in this way be made clear. There are two leading aspects under which speech…

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

The Greek word γυνή (i.e., *gunē*) means 'woman' and can refer to any female, including wives and unmarried women. It is used in various contexts in the New Testament, such as addressing women with respect or affection. The term also specifically denotes a wife and appears in passages like Matthew 1:20 and 14:3. Lexicons note that it can imply different nuances depending on the context.
γυνή, -αικός, ἡ; 1. univ. a woman of any age, whether a virgin, or married, or a widow: Mt. ix. 20; xiii. 33; xxvii. 55; Lk. xiii. 11; Acts v. 14, ete.; ἡ μεμνηστευμένη τινὶ γυνή, Lk. ii. 5 RG; ἡ ὕπανδρος γυνή, Ro. vii. 2 ; γυνὴ xnpa, Lk. iv. 26 (1 K. vii. 2 (14); xvii. 9; femina vidua, | Nep. praef. 4). 2. a wife: 1 Co. vii. 3 sq. 10, 13 sq.; | Eph. ν. 22, ete.; γυνή τινος, Mt. v. 31 sq. ; xix. 3,5; Acts v. 1, 7; 1 Co. vii. 2; Eph. v. 28; Rev. ii. 20 [G L WH mrg.], ete. of a betrothed woman: Mt. i. 20, 24. ἡ γυνὴ τοῦ πατρός his step-mother: 1 Co. v. 1 (38 NW, Lev. xviii. 8). ἔχειν γυναῖκα : Mt. xiv.4; xxii. 28; Mk. vi. 18; xii. 23; Lk. xx. 33; see ἔχω, I. 2b. fin. γύναι, as a form of address, may be used — either in indignation, Lk. xxii. 57; or in admiration, Mt. xv. 28; or in kindness and favor, Lk. xiii. 12; Jn. iv. 21; or in respect, Jn. ii. 4; xix. 26, (as in Hom.

This old noun retains from Homer down to MGr—where it has only changed its declension (ἡ yvvaika)—the two meanings of ‘‘woman”’ and ‘‘ wife”: it is superfluous to illustrate the one or the other, as we should get no light on the only questions that arise in NT, such as which word to use in rendering Mt 578. The meeting of two words characteristic of that passage does, however, make it worth while to quote Wiinsch 4 58° (iii/A.D.), where Domitiana prays that her lover may be wholly devoted to her, μηδεμίαν ἄλλην γυναῖκα μήτε παρθένον ἐπιθυμοῦντα.

The generic term "man" includes woman. In the narrative of the creation (Ge 1:26,27) Adam is a collective term for mankind. It may signify human being, male or female, or humanity entire. "God said, Let us make man .... and let them"…
Woman
Was “taken out of man” (Gen. 2:23), and therefore the man has the preeminence. “The head of the woman is the man;” but yet honour is to be shown to the wife, “as unto the weaker vessel” (1 Cor. 11:3, 8, 9; 1 Pet. 3:7). Several women are mentioned in Scripture as having been endowed with prophetic gifts, as Miriam (Ex. 15:20), Deborah (Judg. 4:4, 5), Huldah (2 Kings 22:14), Noadiah (Neh. 6:14), Anna (Luke 2:36, 37), and the daughters of Philip the evangelist…

Man and woman are indeed essentially one, the natural qualities of each so responding to those of the other as to lay the foundation of the most tender and abiding unity. The Bible thus raised the Jewish woman high above the woman of heathenism; and the Old Testament contains some of the finest portraitures of female character. But still greater is the contrast between the women of heathenism and…

The Greek word ἀπολύω (i.e., *apoluo*) is built from the prefix ἀπο- and the root λύω. It covers a range of meanings including to release, dismiss, and divorce, as well as to forgive or let go. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts such as forgiving debts (Matthew 18:27) and dismissing a wife (Matthew 1:19).

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

The Greek word ἀσθένεια (astheneia) is built from the root ἀσθενής and encompasses meanings related to weakness, frailty, and sickness. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, including references to physical ailments and moral weaknesses. Notably, it is used in verses like Luke 13:11 and Romans 8:26. The lexicons also mention its use in the sense of poverty and moral frailty.
