Context — The Visit of the Magigenerated
Matthew 2:12 recounts how the Magi, after visiting Jesus, received a divine warning in a dream. This warning instructed them not to return to King Herod, who sought to harm the child. Following this guidance, they departed to their own country by a different route, illustrating their obedience to God's direction and the significance of divine intervention in their journey.

The Key Word — χρηματίζω, chrēmatizōgenerated
The word χρηματισθέντες is a perfect passive participle of χρηματίζω, which means to announce or reveal, especially in a divine context. It indicates that the Magi received a warning from God, emphasizing the divine origin of their instruction.
This passive form suggests that the Magi did not initiate the warning themselves; it was given to them, highlighting the role of divine guidance in their actions.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod.' The KJV and ASV use 'warned of God in a dream,' emphasizing the divine source of the warning.
Where translations differ is in the rendering of χρηματισθέντες. The BSB and WEB use 'having been warned,' while the KJV and ASV specify 'warned of God.' Additionally, ἀνακάμψαι is translated as 'to return' in the BSB, but 'return' in the KJV.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb is ἀνεχώρησαν, they withdrew, which governs the entire clause. It is supported by a participial phrase χρηματισθέντες that describes the action of receiving the warning, and an infinitive phrase ἀνακάμψαι that specifies what they were warned not to do.
The structure indicates that the warning directly influenced their decision to withdraw, with the adverbial phrases clarifying the manner of their departure and the destination.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The word χρηματίζω does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint, but its usage in the New Testament context reflects a tradition of divine communication found in the Old Testament, where God often directed His people through dreams.
The concept of receiving divine warnings in dreams can be seen in the Hebrew Bible, where figures like Joseph also received guidance through dreams, paralleling the experience of the Magi.

So ends all that we know of the visit of the Magi. St. Matthew, writing for Hebrews, recorded it apparently as testifying to the kingly character of Jesus.

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 responso accepto in somnis ne redirent ad Herodem, per aliam viam reversi sunt in regionem suam.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܘܐܬܚܙܝ ܠܗܘܢ ܒܚܠܡܐ ܕܠܐ ܢܗܦܟܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܗܪܘܕܣ ܘܒܐܘܪܚܐ ܐܚܪܬܐ ܐܙܠܘ ܠܐܬܪܗܘܢ

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.

χρηματίζω (chrematizo) means to transact business or negotiate, often related to financial dealings. It also encompasses consulting or deliberating, especially in the context of divine communication, where it signifies receiving divine instructions or warnings, as seen in Matthew 2:12 and Hebrews 12:25.

κατά (kata) is a preposition used with the genitive and accusative cases, primarily meaning 'down' or 'against.' It indicates direction, motion, or relation, appearing in various contexts such as 'down from' (e.g., Mt 8:32) and 'against' (e.g., Mk 9:40). The word also conveys meanings like 'throughout' and 'according to.' Lexicons note its frequent use in the New Testament, with some variations in application.

(cf. Proleg. p. 105). Brugmann (Awrze Vergletchende Grammazk, p. 479) considers that the earliest use of the word was “‘along ” something, so as to remain in connexion and contact with the object, and from this most of the senses found in the NT can be derived.

PREP PREPosition
A principal thing to notice about this preposition, which in the King James Version represents about 16 Hebrew and as many Greek words and prepositions, is that, in hundreds of cases (especially in the Old Testament, but frequently also in the New Testament) in the Revised Version (British and American) the rendering is changed to more exact forms ("to," "unto," "by," "upon," "at," "with," "among," "for," "throughout," etc.; compare e.g. Ge 6:16; 13:8; 17:7,9,12; 18:1; Ex 8:17; Le 1:9, etc.); while, nearly as often, "in" is substituted for divergent forms of the King James Version (e.g. Ge 2:14; 17:11; 31:54; 40:7; 49:17; Ex…

The Greek word ὄναρ (onár) means 'a dream' and is used only in the nominative and accusative singular forms. It appears in the New Testament in several verses, including Matthew 1:20 and 27:19, often in the phrase 'κατ᾽ ὄναρ' meaning 'in a dream.' The word contrasts with waking visions and can also express something fleeting or unreal.
* ὄναρ, τό,
indecl., used only in nom, and acc. sing. (the other cases are supplied by ὄνειρος), a dream: κατ’ ὄ. (in later writers only), in a dream, Mt 1:20 2:12, 13, 19, 22 27:19.†
ὄναρ, τό, (an indecl. noun, used only in the nom. and acc. sing.; the other cases are taken from dvepés), [fr. Hom. down], a dream: κατ᾽ ὄναρ, in a dream, Mt. i. 20; ii. 12 sq. 19, 22; xxvii. 19, a later Greek phrase, for which Attic writ. used ὄναρ without κατά [q. v. 11. 2]; see Lob. ad Phryn. p. 422 sqq.; [Photius, Lex. p. 149, 25 sq. ].
ὄναρ. The phrase κατ᾽ ὄναρ which is found for the Attic ὄναρ sexies in Mt, is condemned by Photius (Zex. p. 149, 25 f.) as βάρβαρον παντελῶς : cf. Lob. Phryn. p. 422 ff. It occurs not infrequently in votive inscrr. but with the meaning ‘‘in consequence of a dream,’ and not ‘‘in a dream,” e.g. Sy// 780 (= 8 1147) (ii/iii A.D.) Οὔλπιοι ΝΝείκανδρος καὶ Σωτήptos “Yyela Σωτ[είζρῃ Συνοδοι[πόρ]ῳ κατ᾽ ὄναρ: see also Deissmann .5.5, p. 253. A new literary ex. of the word occurs in Herodas 1. 11 οὐδ᾽ ὄναρ: cf.

Dream
God has frequently made use of dreams in communicating his will to men. The most remarkable instances of this are recorded in the history of Jacob (Gen. 28:12; 31:10), Laban (31:24), Joseph (37:9-11), Gideon (Judg. 7), and Solomon (1 Kings 3:5). Other significant dreams are also recorded, such as those of Abimelech (Gen. 20:3-7), Pharaoh’s chief butler and baker (40:5), Pharaoh (41:1-8), the Midianites (Judg. 7:13), Nebuchadnezzar (Dan. 2:1; 4:10, 18), the wise men from the east (Matt. 2:12), and Pilate’s wife (27:19).
The orientals, and in particular the Jews, greatly regarded dreams, and applied for their interpretation to those who undertook to explain them. We see the antiquity of this custom in the history of Pharaoh’s butler and baker, Ge 40:1-23; and Pharaoh himself and Nebuchadnezzar are also instances. God expressly forbade his people to observe dreams, and to consult explainers of them. He condemned to death all who pretended to have prophetic dreams, even though what they foretold came to pass, if they had any tendency to promote idolatry, De 13:1-3. But they were not forbidden, when they thought they had a significant dream, to address the prophets of the Lord, or the high priest in his ephod, to have it explained. The Lord frequently made known his will in dreams, and enabled…

μή (mē) is a Greek negative particle used to express subjective negation, often in conditional or hypothetical contexts. It contrasts with οὐ (ou), which indicates absolute denial. μή can function as an adverb meaning 'not' or as a conjunction meaning 'lest.' It appears in various grammatical constructions, including prohibitions and deliberative questions, and is referenced in verses like Matthew 5:29 and John 3:18.
μή,
subjective negative particle,
used where the negation depends on a condition or hypothesis, expressed or understood, as distinct from οὐ, which denies absolutely. μή is used where one thinks a thing is not, as distinct from an absolute negation. As a general rule, οὐ negatives the indic., μή the other moods, incl, ptcp. [In LXX for אֵין, אַיִן, אַל.]
As a neg. adv., not;
with ref. to thought or opinion: Jo 3:18, Tit 1:11, II Pe 1:9.
μή, Sept. for Ox, |X, PN, ἃ particle of negation, which differs from οὐ (which is always an adverb) in that ov denies the thing itself (orto speak technically, denies simply, absolutely, categorically, directly, objectively). but μή denies the thought of the thing, or the thing according to the judgment, opinion, will, purpose, preference, of some one (hence, as we say technically, indirectly, hypothetically, subjectively). This distinction holds also of the compounds οὐδείς, μηδείς, οὐκέτι, μηκέτι, ete.

The New Testament uses it in contexts like returning from a journey (Matthew 2:12, Acts 18:21) and metaphorically in Luke 10:6. It is primarily intransitive, indicating a return or bending back.
ἀνα-κάμπτω: fut. ἀνακάμψω; 1 aor. ἀνέκαμψα; to bend back, turn back. In the N. T. (as often in prof. auth. ; in Sept. i. q. 2) intrans. to return: Mt. ii. 12; Lk. x. 6 (where the meaning is, ‘ your salutation shall i1eturn to you, as if not spoken”); Acts xviii. 21; Heb. xi. 15.
ἀνακάμπτω. In connexion with the metaphorical use in.Lk 108, we may quote BGU III. 896° (ii/a.D.) πάντα τὰ ἐμὰ ἀνακάμψει els τὴν προγεγραμμ[ένην θυγατέρα]. For the ordinary sense ‘‘ return,” cf. P Magd 81° (iii/B.c.), μετὰ δὲ ταῦτ᾽ ἀνακάμ[ψαντός μου]. See also Anz Szdsidia, p. 314 f.

her'-ud: The name Herod (Herodes) is a familiar one in the history of the Jews and of the early Christian church. The name itself signifies "heroic," a name not wholly applicable to the family, which was characterized by craft and knavery rather than by heroism. The fortunes of the Herodiam family are inseparably connected with the last flickerings of the flame of Judaism, as a national power, before it was forever extinguished in the great Jewish war of rebellion, 70 AD. The history of the Herodian family is not lacking in elements of greatness, but whatever these elements were and in whomsoever found, they were in every ease dimmed by the insufferable egotism which disfigured the family, root and branch. Some of the Herodian princes were undeniably talented; but these talents, wrongly used, left no marks for the good of the people of Israel. Of nearly all the kings of the house of…
(hero-like). This family though of Idumean origin and thus alien by race, was Jewish in faith. I. HEROD THE GREAT was the second son of Antipater, an Idumean, who was appointed procurator of Judea by Julius Caesar, B.C. 47. Immediately after his father’s elevation when only fifteen years old, he received the government of Galilee and shortly afterward that of Coele-Syria. Though Josephus says he was 15 years old at this time, it is generally conceded that there must be some mistake, as he lived to be 69 or 70 years old, and died B.C. 4; hence he must have been 25 years old at this time.--ED.) In B.C. 41 he was appointed by Antony tetrarch of Judea. Forced to abandon Judea the following year, he fled to Rome, and received the appointment of king of Judea. In the course of a few years, by the help of the Romans he took Jerusalem (B.C. 37), and completely established his authority…
The name of four princes, Idumaeans by descent, who governed either the whole or a part of Judea, under the Romans, and are mentioned in the New Testament.
1. HEROD THE GREAT, Mt 2:1-23 Lu 1:5. He was the son of Antipater, an Idumaean, who was in high favor with Julius Caesar. At the age of fifteen years, Herod was constituted by his father procurator of Galilee under Hyrcanus II, who was then at the head of the Jewish nation; while his brother Phasael was intrusted with the same authority over Judea. In these stations they were afterwards confirmed by Antony, with the title of tetrarch, about the year 41 B. C. The power of Hyrcanus had always been opposed by his brother Aristobulus; and now Antigonus, the son of the latter, continued in hostility to Herod, and was assisted by the…

It covers a range of uses, including indicating motion through space or time, causation, and means or instrumentality.

The Greek word ἄλλος (i.e., *allos*) means 'another' or 'other.' It is used in various contexts to denote numerical distinction, as opposed to qualitative difference, which is expressed by ἕτερος (*heteros*). The New Testament uses it in passages like Matthew 20:3 and John 14:16. Lexicographers note that while ἄλλος indicates simple distinction among individuals, ἕτερος implies a difference in kind.
“AXXos, identical with the Latin ‘alius,’ is the numerically distinct ; thus Christ spoke we are told ‘ another ’ parable, and still ‘ another ,’ but each succeeding one being of the same character as those which He had spoken before (Matt. xiii. 23, 24, 31, 33), ἄλλην therefore in every case. But Zrepos, equivalent to the Latin ‘alter,’ to the German ‘ander’ (on which last word see an instructive article in Grimm’s Wéorterbuch), superadds the notion of qualitative difference. One is ‘ divers,’ the other is ‘diverse.’ There are not a few passages in the N. T. whose right interpretation, or at any rate their full understanding, will depend on an accurate seizing of the distinction between these words. Thus Christ promises to his disciples that He will send, not ἕτερον, but ἄλλον, Παράκλητον (John xiv. 16), ‘another’ Comforter therefore, similar to Himself. The dogmatic force of this…

The Greek word ἀναχωρέω (i.e., *anachōreō*) means to go back or withdraw, often used in contexts of retreating from danger or leaving a place. It appears in several New Testament passages, including Matthew and Acts, where it conveys the idea of departing or avoiding confrontation. The lexicons consistently emphasize its use in both literal and metaphorical senses, but they do not show significant disagreement on its meanings.
ἀνα-χωρέω, -ῶ; 1 aor. ἀνεχώρησα; (freq. in Grk. writ.) ; 1. to go back, return: Mt. ii. 12 sq. [al. refer this to next head]. 2. towithdraw; a. univ., so as to leave room: Mt. ix. 24. b. of those who through fear seek some other place, or shun sight: Mt. ii. 14, 22; iv.12; xii. 15; xiv. 13; xv. 21; xxvii. 5; Mk. iii. 7; Jn. vi. 15 [Tdf. φεύγει}; Acts xxiii. 19 (κατ᾽ ἰδίαν) ; xxvi. 31.
ἀναχωρέω is applied to the ‘‘ falling” of the Nile in P Magd τ115 (B.C. 221) τοῦ ὕδατος ἀναχωροῦντος, as is the substantive in P Petr IT. 13 (19)® (c.

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,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

χώρα refers to a space or region, often translated as land, country, or territory. It can denote both rural areas as opposed to urban settings and specific regions within a country, such as Galatia or Judea. The New Testament uses it in contexts like Matthew 12:2 and Luke 2:8. The word is derived from a root meaning 'to lie open,' indicating an expanse that can include its inhabitants.

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.
