Sections marked generated are written from the data on this page rather than by a named author. Everything else — the lexicon entries, the cross references, the manuscript readings, the counts — is quoted from its source unchanged.
Context — Instructions for the Journeygenerated
Luke 9:3 presents Jesus giving specific instructions to His disciples as He sends them out to preach and heal. He emphasizes the importance of relying on God rather than on physical provisions. This directive reflects a deeper spiritual principle of faith and dependence on divine provision during their mission, similar to teachings found in Matthew 6:25-34 about not worrying for daily needs.

The Key Word — μηδὲν, mēdeisgenerated
The word μηδείς is an adjective meaning 'nothing' or 'no one,' built from μή (not) and εἷς (one). It emphasizes the absence of anything, indicating that the disciples are to take no provisions for their journey.
This construction in the accusative case indicates that it is the direct object of what Jesus commands. The use of μηδὲν here stresses the totality of the instruction, underscoring a call to trust in God alone.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The Berean Standard Bible translates the verse with 'nothing,' which is consistent across the KJV, ASV, and WEB, all emphasizing the same idea of taking no provisions.
However, the YLT uses 'neither' in a different construction, while the BBE opts for a more casual phrasing. The translations agree on the core meaning but differ slightly in style.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb in this verse is εἶπεν, He said, which governs the entire command. The structure includes a direct object and several noun phrases that list what the disciples should not take.
The command is structured with a series of negations, each item separated by μηδὲν and μήτε, creating a rhythm that emphasizes the totality of the prohibition.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
μηδείς does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint but is conceptually similar to the Hebrew word אַל, which means 'not' or 'no'. This highlights the emphasis on absence found in both texts.
ὁδός, meaning 'way' or 'journey', corresponds to the Hebrew דֶּ֫רֶךְ, which is used in the Old Testament to describe paths or journeys, reinforcing the continuity of the theme of travel.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Luke 9:3 shows Jesus instructing His disciples not to take anything for their journey. They are told to rely on God for their needs, highlighting the importance of faith during their mission.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
It means that the disciples are to rely solely on God for their needs during their mission, emphasizing faith over material provisions.
This instruction teaches the disciples to depend on God's provision and the hospitality of those they encounter during their ministry.
This reflects Jesus' broader teachings on faith and reliance on God, as seen in passages like Matthew 6:25-34.
We can learn the importance of trusting God for our needs and being willing to step out in faith, even when we feel unprepared.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what areas of my life do I need to trust God more fully?
- How can I practice relying on God instead of my own resources?
- What does it look like to step out in faith in my daily life?
- How can I support others in their journey of faith?

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.
Et ait ad illos : Nihil tuleritis in via, neque virgam, neque peram, neque panem, neque pecuniam, neque duas tunicas habeatis.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܬܫܩܠܘܢ ܠܐܘܪܚܐ ܠܐ ܫܒܛܐ ܘܠܐ ܬܪܡܠܐ ܘܠܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܘܠܐ ܟܣܦܐ ܘܠܐ ܬܪܬܝܢ ܟܘܬܝܢܝܢ ܢܗܘܝܢ ܠܟܘܢ

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.

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…

αἴρω, transliterated as airō, is a Greek verb meaning to lift, raise, or take up. It encompasses a range of actions such as bearing or carrying something away, and it can also refer to the figurative act of raising one's voice or expiating sin. The New Testament uses this word in contexts like lifting a bed (Mark 2:9) and bearing the cross (Matthew 16:24).

tak: Most of the very numerous examples of this word are still in good use and only a few call for special attention. "To take" in the sense of "capture" is still common, but when a person or living animal is in point, modern English usually adds "prisoner" or "captive." English Versions of the Bible not infrequently has this addition (Ge 14:14, etc.), but more commonly "take" is used without it (Jos 10:39; Job 5:13; Sirach 23:21; Joh 7:30, etc.). An occasional obscurity is thus caused, as in Ge 27:3, "take me venison" for "hunt venison for me." "To take advice" (2Ch…

εἰς is a preposition meaning 'into' or 'to,' used with the accusative case. It indicates direction, entrance, or limit, applicable to place, time, and figurative purposes. The New Testament frequently employs it to express movement toward locations or states, as seen in passages like Matthew 8:23. It can also denote relationships or results, such as 'for' or 'among.'

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.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,

The Greek word ὁδός (i.e., *hodos*) means 'way,' 'path,' or 'road.' It can refer to a physical route or a metaphorical course of conduct, as seen in various New Testament contexts. The term is frequently used to describe journeys and ways of thinking or acting, including the Christian faith. Notably, it appears in verses like Matthew 2:12 and John 14:6.

See DAY'S JOURNEY; SABBATH DAY'S JOURNEY.
Journey
(1.) A day’s journey in the East is from 16 to 20 miles (Num. 11:31).
(2.) A Sabbath-day’s journey is 2,000 paces or yards from the city walls (Acts 1:12). According to Jewish tradition, it was the distance one might travel without violating the law of Ex. 16:29. (See SABBATH.)
A "sabbath-day’s journey," among the Jews, seems to have been reckoned at about seven furlongs, or nearly one mile, Mt 24:20 Ac 1:12. An ordinary day’s journey is about twenty miles. Persons starting on a journey in the East frequently make their first stage a short one, that they may the more easily send back for any forgotten articles or necessary supplies. This may perhaps apply to the "day’s journey" of the parents of Jesus, mentioned in Lu 2:44.
For the journeyings of the Israelites, see EXODUS, and WANDERINGS.

The Greek word ῥάβδος (rhabdos) means a rod or staff, often used for various purposes such as a walking stick, a ruler's sceptre, or a tool for chastisement. It appears in the New Testament in contexts like a journey staff (e.g., Matthew 10:10) and a rod of correction (e.g., 1 Corinthians 4:21). The term also has broader meanings in classical literature, including a magic wand or a fishing rod.

staf: Many Hebrew terms are represented by this word. The "staves" of the ark translate the word badh, literally, "a part," hence, branch, bar, etc. (Ex 25:13,14,15,27,28, etc.). Other words, as matteh, maqqel, shebhet, used of the staff in the hand, the shepherd's staff, figuratively, "staff of bread" (matteh, Eze 4:16; 5:16; 14:13), as indispensable for support of life, are dealt with under ROD (which see). The New Testament word is rhabdos (Mt 10:10 parallel Lu 9:3; Heb 11:21).

The Greek word πήρα (pēra) refers to a leather pouch or wallet used for carrying provisions. It appears in the New Testament in contexts related to travel and provision, such as in Matthew and Mark. Some sources suggest it may also refer to a collecting bag for alms, though this interpretation is debated.
πήρα, -as, 7, α wallet (a leathern sack, in which travellers and shepherds carried their provisions) [A. V. scrip (q- v- in B.D.)]: Mt. x. 10; Mk. vi. 8; Lk. ix.3; x. 4; xxii. 35 sq. (Hom., Arstph., Joseph., Plut., Hdian., Leian., al.; with τῶν βρωμάτων added, Judith xiii. 10.)
πήρα. In Mt το"ῦ a/. πήρα is usually understood as “ἃ travellingbag’ containing clothes or provisions for the journey ; but Deissmann (LAZ, p. 108 ff.) prefers to see in it ‘*a collectingbag ’’ such as beggar-priests of pagan cults carried for receiving alms, and in support of this view cites an inscr. in which a slave of the Syrian goddess tells how he went begging for the ‘“lady’’, adding—a(m)opdpynce ἑκάστη ἀγωγὴ πήρας ὁ, ‘teach journey brought in seventy bags” (BCH xxi. (1897) p. 60-—Imperial period). Consequently, as Deissmann’s translator points out (LAE Zc. n.§), “*wallet ’’ is the right word in English, as seen e.g. in Shakespeare 7Z7oz/us and Cressida III. iii. 145, ‘‘ Time hath, my lord, a wallet at his back, Wherein he puts alms for oblivion.” For the dim. πηρίδιον see Epict. iii. 22. 10, and Menandrea p. 141! πηρίδιον γνωρισμάτων, ‘Sa walletful of birth tokens.” The…

Bags of various kinds are mentioned in the English Bible, but often in a way to obscure rather than tr the original.
(1) "Bag" is used for a Hebrew word which means a shepherd's "bag," rendered "wallet" in the Revised Version (British and American). This "bag" of the shepherd or "haversack" of the traveler was of a size sufficient for one or more days' provisions. It was made of the skin of animals, ordinarily undressed, as most of the other "bags" of ancient times were, and was carried slung across the shoulder. This is the "scrip for the journey" pera mentioned in Mt 10:10 and its parallel (the King James Version). ("Scrip" is Old English, now obsolete.) A unique word appears in 1Sa 17:40,49 which had to be explained even to Hebrew readers by the gloss, "the shepherd's bag,"…
Bag
(1.) A pocket of a cone-like shape in which Naaman bound two pieces of silver for Gehazi (2 Kings 5:23). The same Hebrew word occurs elsewhere only in Isa. 3:22, where it is rendered “crisping-pins,” but denotes the reticules (or as R.V., “satchels”) carried by Hebrew women.
(2.) Another word (kees) so rendered means a bag for carrying weights (Deut. 25:13; Prov. 16:11; Micah 6:11). It also denotes a purse (Prov. 1:14) and a cup (23:31).
is the rendering of several words in the Old and New Testaments. Charitim , the "bags" in which Naaman bound up the two talents of silver for Gehazi. (2 Kings 5:23) They were long cone-like bags of the size to hold a precise amount of money, and tied or sealed for that amount, as we stamp the value on a coin. Cis , a bag for carrying weights, (25:13) also used as a purse (Proverbs 1:14) Celi , in (Genesis 42:25) is the "sack" in which Jacob’s sons carried the corn which they brought from Egypt. The shepherd’s "bag" used by David was for the purpose of carrying the lambs unable to walk. (Zechariah 11:15; 16:5) Tschar , properly a "bundle," (

The Greek word ἄρτος (i.e., *artos*) means bread or a loaf, primarily made from wheat. It is used in various contexts in the New Testament, including references to the bread of the Last Supper (Mt 26:26) and general food (Mt 6:11). The entries highlight its metaphorical use, particularly in relation to Christ as the 'bread of life' (John 6:35).

LITERATURE
The art of bread-making is very ancient. It was even known to the Egyptians at a very early day (Wilkinson, Ancient Egyptians), to the Hebrews of the Exodus (Nowack, Lehrbuch der hebr. Archaologie) and, of course, to the Greeks and Romans of a later day. Bread played a large part in the vocabulary and in the life of the ancient Hebrews.

(1) In the East bread is primary, other articles of food merely accessory; while in the West meat and other things chiefly constitute the meal, and bread is merely secondary. Accordingly "bread" in…
Bread
Among the Jews was generally made of wheat (Ex. 29:2; Judg. 6:19), though also sometimes of other grains (Gen. 14:18; Judg. 7:13). Parched grain was sometimes used for food without any other preparation (Ruth 2:14).
Bread was prepared by kneading in wooden bowls or “kneading troughs” (Gen. 18:6; Ex. 12:34; Jer. 7:18). The dough was mixed with leaven and made into thin cakes, round or oval, and then baked. The bread eaten at the Passover was always…
The preparation of bread as an article of food dates from a very early period. (Genesis 18:6) The corn or grain employed was of various sorts. The best bread was made of wheat, but "barley" and spelt were also used. (John 6:9,13; Isaiah 28:25) The process of making bread was as follows: the flour was first mixed with water or milk; it was then kneaded with the hands (in Egypt with the feet also) in a small wooden bowl or "kneading-trough" until it became dough. (Exodus 12:34,39; 2 Samuel 13:3; Jeremiah 7:18) When the kneading was completed, leaven was generally added [LEAVEN]; but when the time for preparation was short…
A word which in Scripture is often put for food in general, Ge 3:19 18:5 28:20 Ex 2:20 Le 11:3. Manna is called bread from heaven, Ex 16:4. Bread, in the proper and literal sense, usually means cakes made of wheaten flour; barely being used chiefly by the poor and for feeding horses. The wheat was ground daily, in small stone mills; the flour was made into dough in a wooden trough, and subsequently leavened, Ex 12:34 Ho 7:4. It was then made into cakes, and baked.

The Greek word ἀργύριον (lemma: argurion) primarily refers to a piece of silver or a silver coin, and by extension, it can mean money in general. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, including references to silver and monetary transactions. Notably, it is associated with specific coins like the shekel or drachma.

In P Amh II. 405 (ii/B.c.) mention is made of a bribe consisting of ἀργυρίου σταί(τῆρας) ἢ», ‘eight staters of silver,” by means of which a certain Epiodorus secured a fresh division of land in the interests of the temple: of Socnopaeus.

mun'-i: Various terms are used for money in the Bible, but the most common are the Hebrew keceph, and Greek argurion, both meaning silver. We find also qesiTah, rendered by Septuagint "lambs," probably referring to money in a particular form; chalkos, is used for money in Mt 10:9; Mr 6:8; 12:41. It was the name of a small coin of Agrippa II (Madden, Coins of the Jews); chrema, "price," is rendered money in Ac 4:37; 8:18,20; 24:26; kerma, "piece," i.e. piece of money (Joh 2:15); didrachmon, "tribute money" (Mt 17:24 the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "half-shekel"); kensos, "census,"…
Money
Of uncoined money the first notice we have is in the history of Abraham (Gen. 13:2; 20:16; 24:35). Next, this word is used in connection with the purchase of the cave of Machpelah (23:16), and again in connection with Jacob’s purchase of a field at Shalem (Gen. 33:18, 19) for “an hundred pieces of money”=an hundred Hebrew kesitahs (q.v.), i.e., probably pieces of money, as is supposed, bearing the figure of a lamb.
The history of Joseph affords evidence of the constant use of money, silver of a fixed weight. This appears also in all the subsequent history of the Jewish people, in all their internal as well as foreign transactions. There were in common use in trade silver pieces of a definite weight, shekels, half-shekels, and quarter-shekels. But these were not properly…
Uncointed money. --It is well known that ancient nations that were without a coinage weighed the precious metals, a practice represented on the Egyptian monuments, on which gold and silver are shown to have been kept in the form of rings. We have no evidence of the use of coined money before the return from the Babylonian captivity; but silver was used for money, in quantities determined by weight, at least as early as the time of Abraham; and its earliest mention is in the generic sense of the price paid for a slave. (Genesis 17:13) The 1000 pieces of silver paid by Abimelech to Abraham, (Genesis 20:16) and the 20 pieces of silver for which Joseph was sold to the Ishmaelites, (Genesis 37:28) were probably rings such as we…
Was anciently weighed, and did not at first exist in the form of coins. The most ancient commerce was conducted by barter, or exchanging one sort of merchandise for another. One man gave what he could spare to another, who gave him in return part of his superabundance. Afterwards, the more precious metals were used in traffic, as a value more generally known and stated, and the amount agreed upon was paid over by weight, Ge 23:16 43:21 Ex 30:24. Lastly they gave this metal, a certain weight, and a certain degree of alloy, to fix its value, and to save buyers and sellers the trouble of weighing and examining the coins. The first regular coinage among the Jews is supposed to have been in the time of Simon Maccabaeus, less than a century and a half before Christ. The coins were the…

μήτε is a negative particle meaning 'neither' or 'nor,' often used in pairs (e.g., μήτε...μήτε). It appears in various New Testament passages, including Matthew 5:34-36 and Acts 23:8. The word is formed from μή and the enclitic τέ, and it differs from οὔτε in its usage.

The Greek word ἀνά (ana) is a preposition meaning 'up' and is used with various cases, primarily the accusative. It conveys a sense of upward motion or distribution, as seen in phrases like ἀνὰ μέσον ('between') and ἀνὰ δηνάριον ('at the rate of a denarius'). In the New Testament, it appears in limited contexts, often indicating division or proportion, and is rare overall.

δύο is a numeral meaning 'two,' used in various contexts throughout the New Testament, such as in Matthew 19:6 and Mark 10:8. 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.

χιτών is a noun meaning 'tunic' or 'garment,' typically worn next to the skin. It is distinguished from ἱμάτιον, which refers to an outer garment. The term appears in several New Testament verses, including Matthew 10:10 and Mark 14:63. The entries indicate that the word has a broad historical usage, referring to various types of tunics across different contexts.
χιτών, -dvos, 6, fr. Hom. down, Sept. for ΠΩ. and NJA3, a tunic, an undergarment, usually worn next the skin: Mt. x. 10; Mk. vi. 9; Lk. iii. 11; ix.3; Jude 28. it is distinguished from τὸ ἱμάτιον (q. ν. 2) or τὰ ἱμάτια in Mt. v. 40; Lk. vi. 29; Jn. xix. 23; Acts ix. 39; univ. a garment, vestment (Aeschyl. suppl. 903), plur. (Plut. Tib. Gracch. 19), Mk. xiv. 68. [Cf. Rich, Dict. of Antiq. 8. v. Tunica; and reff. s.v. ἱμάτιον, u.s.]
χιτών, ‘fa tunic,” “δῇ undergarment,” as distinguished from ἱμάτιον (g.v.): cf. Preisigke 67179 (B.c. 258 or 257) χιτῶνα καὶ ἱμάτιον, PSI I. 641° (i/B.c. 2) ἱμάτιον ταλάντων πέντε χιτῶνα [δὲ or τεῦ δραχμῶν] τετρακισχιλίων ἑξακοσίων, and Musonius p. 1077. The form χιτών, which occurs throughout in the NT, may be seen further in Preisigke 67834 (B.c. 257) χιτὼν βύϊσσινος, and P Oxy I. 1145 (ii/iii A.D.) χιτὼν καὶ μαφόρτιν λευκόν, ‘Sa tunic and a white veil.” For other forms, which are frequent in the Kow#, we may note the Ionic κιτών, as in Mk 1458 B* (cf. Proleg. Ὁ. 38), in BGU I. 2216 (A.D. 114) (= Selections, p. 75) περιέσχισέ μοι τὸν κιτῶνα καὶ τὸ πάλλιον, “she stripped off my tunic and mantle,” P Oxy I. 1138 (ii/A.pD.) © κιτὼν ὑφανθῆναι μέλλει, ‘‘the tunic is to be woven immediately,” 26.

The Dorian χιτών was also worn by Spartan women, being open at the side (σχιστός), and fastened with περόναι, Hdt.—Over this χιτών was worn the ἱμάτιον.

The Greek word ἔχω, transliterated as echō, means 'to have' or 'to hold' and is used in various contexts, including possession, ability, and condition. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often relating to physical possession or metaphorical concepts like keeping faith or emotions. Notably, it can also refer to being pregnant, as seen in Matthew 1:18. The entries do not show significant disagreement.
