Context — The Crucifixion of Jesusgenerated
Luke 23:32 recounts how two others, described as criminals, were led away to be executed with Jesus. This moment emphasizes the severity of the punishment being meted out and places Jesus among those deemed worthy of capital punishment. It aligns with the prophecies of the suffering servant found in the Old Testament, particularly in Isaiah 53:12, where the Messiah is numbered with the transgressors.

The Key Word — κακοῦργος, kakourgosgenerated
The term κακοῦργοι is an adjective derived from roots meaning 'evil' and 'work.' It specifically refers to individuals who commit crimes or do evil deeds. In this verse, it denotes those who are being punished for their wrongdoings, highlighting their status as malefactors.
This word appears in a legal context, emphasizing their guilt and the gravity of their actions. The use of this term in conjunction with Jesus' execution underscores the narrative's focus on justice and the fulfillment of prophecy regarding the suffering of the innocent.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'criminals,' which aligns with the translations of the BSB, FBV, and WEB. These versions emphasize the wrongdoing of the individuals being executed.
However, the KJV and ASV use the term 'malefactors,' which carries a more formal connotation of criminality. This distinction highlights how different translations approach the nature of the individuals involved.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is Ἤγοντο, were being led away, which governs the entire clause. The structure includes a noun phrase as the subject ('two others, who were criminals') and a prepositional phrase indicating the purpose of their leading ('to be executed with Jesus').
The sentence structure reflects a straightforward narrative style, typical of the Gospel accounts, where the action of leading away is central, and the details about the criminals serve to provide context.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
κακοῦργοι appears in the context of wrongdoing, similar to the Hebrew word אַחֵר (H312), which also denotes 'another' or 'other.' This connection emphasizes the continuity of themes regarding justice and punishment from the Old Testament to the New.
The Greek word ἀναιρεθῆναι corresponds to the Hebrew הָרַג (H2026), which means 'to kill.' This highlights the severity of the actions taken against these criminals and Jesus.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
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.
Ducebantur autem et alii duo nequam cum eo, ut interficerentur.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

The Greek word ἄγω (lemma: agō) primarily means to lead or bring. It can refer to guiding someone or something, carrying, or spending time. In the New Testament, it is used in various contexts, including leading people to court or guiding them spiritually. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement regarding its meanings.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. 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.

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.

Mt 6:14 should therefore read, "Your heavenly Father will forgive you also"; Lu 6:13, "Whom also he named apostles"; Heb 8:6, "The mediator of a better covenant also"; and 1Th 4:14, `If we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also (we believe that) those who are fallen asleep in Jesus, God will bring with Him.'

ἕτερος is an adjective meaning 'other' or 'another,' primarily used in the context of pairs or duality. It can refer to the second of two items or people, as well as to others in a broader sense. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Matthew and Luke, often contrasting with 'the first' or 'one.' Notably, it can also imply difference in kind or quality.

The Greek word κακοῦργος (*kakourgos*) is derived from roots meaning 'evil' and 'work.' It refers to a malefactor or criminal, particularly in legal contexts, and is used in the New Testament in passages like Luke 23:32, 33, and 39, as well as 2 Timothy 2:9. The lexicons agree on its meaning as a wrong-doer or criminal, with no significant disagreement noted.

It can appear with plural nouns and in phrases like 'two and two' or 'into two parts.' The word is indeclinable in most uses, although it has forms in the genitive and dative cases.

The Greek word σύν (sun) is a preposition meaning 'with' or 'together with,' indicating association, companionship, or inclusion. It is used with the dative case and appears frequently in the New Testament, especially in the writings of Luke and Paul. Notably, it conveys a closer relationship than other similar prepositions. Examples include phrases like 'σὺν Χριστῷ' (with Christ) and 'σὺν ἐμοί' (with me).
σύν (old Att. ξύν),
prep. c. dat.,
expressing association, fellowship and inclusion. It gradually gave way to μετά, c. gen. (cf. LS, s.v.; Bl., § 41, 3), and is therefore comparatively infrequent in NT, being rare in Mt4, Mk6, Jo3, and elsewhere (exx. Ja 1:11, II Pe 1:18) only in Lk (Gosp. and Ac) and Paul. With, together with: of companionship and association, Lk 2:13, Jo 21:3, Ac 10:23, al.; εἶναι σύν τινι, Lk 7:12, Ac 4:13, Phl 1:23, al.; of partisanship, Ac 4:13; οἱ σύν τινι (ὄντες), of attendants, companions or colleagues, Read the full entry →
σύν [the older form ξύν is still found in some edd. in composition (as ξυμ-βαίνω, 1 Pet. iv. 12 Rec***; see L. and S. 5. v. init.; cf. 3, o,s)], a preposition; it is never used in the Apocalypse, rarely by Matthew [some four times (texts vary) ], Mark [some five times, or John (three times) ], (who prefer μετά), more frequently by Luke ΄, συν [(Gospel and Acts) about 79 times] and Paul [about 39 times ; on the comparative frequency of these prepp. in the classics, see L. and S.s. v. ad init.]. It takes the Dative after it, and denotes accompaniment and fellowship, whether of action, or of belief, or of condition and experience; (acc. to the grammarians [ef. Donaldson, New Crat.§181; Kriiger §68, 13,1; Kihner ii. p.438]; W. 391 (366), a fellowship far closer and more intimate than that expressed by perd, although in the N.

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.
