The Key Wordgenerated
The verb ἀπεστεγάζω is an aorist active indicative form, meaning 'to unroof' or 'to remove the roof'. It is derived from the prefix ἀπο- meaning 'away from' and στέγη meaning 'roof'. This word captures the physical action taken by the men to access Jesus, highlighting their resourcefulness and determination.
This action of uncovering the roof was not merely a physical act but also a demonstration of their faith in Jesus' power to heal. The use of the aorist tense indicates a completed action, emphasizing the decisiveness of their efforts.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the phrase 'they uncovered the roof' is used, which is consistent with the KJV and ASV. Both translations convey the same action of removing the roof.
However, the Young's Literal Translation uses 'uncovered the roof' in a similar manner, while the World English Bible opts for 'removed the roof', showing slight variation in wording but maintaining the same meaning.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is governed by the verb δυνάμενοι, being able, which indicates the subject's ability to act. This is followed by a series of actions: uncovering the roof, making an opening, and lowering the paralytic.
The structure reveals a sequence of events that builds tension as the friends navigate the obstacles presented by the crowd, culminating in their successful lowering of the paralytic to Jesus.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἀπεστεγάζω does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint, but the concept of uncovering or removing a covering can relate to passages discussing the construction or destruction of roofs, as roofs were significant in ancient architecture.
The action of uncovering a roof in this context emphasizes the urgency and faith of the individuals involved, paralleling themes found in the Old Testament regarding faith and divine intervention.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Mark 2:4 tells how four friends, unable to reach Jesus because of the crowd, uncovered the roof and lowered their paralyzed friend to Him. This act shows their determination and faith in Jesus' ability to heal.

St. Luke gives, “through the tiles.” They let down the bed.—St. Mark uses a different word from St. Matthew, the Greek form of the Latin word grabatus, the pallet or camp-bed used by the poor. The same word appears in John 5:8-10, and in Acts 5:15; Acts 9:33, but not at all in St. Matthew or St. Luke.
Read Charles John Ellicott on Mark 2 →AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the BibleVerse 4. They uncovered the roof] The houses in the east are generally made flat-roofed, that the inhabitants may have the benefit of taking the air on them; they are also furnished with battlements round about, Deuteronomy 22:8; Judges 16:27; and 2 Samuel 11:2, to prevent persons from falling off; and have a trap door by which they descend into the house. This door, it appears, was too narrow to let down the sick man and his couch; so they uncovered the roof, removed a part of the tiles; and having broken it up, taken away the laths or timber, to which the tiles had been attached, they then had room to let down the afflicted man. See Lu 5:19, and on Matthew 10:27; Matthew 24:17.
Read AdamClarke on Mark 2 →CambridgeThe Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges4. they uncovered the roof] They appear (1) to have ascended to the flat roof probably by a flight of steps outside (Luke 5:19); (2) to have broken up the tiling or thin stone slabs, sometimes used at this day; (3) to have lowered the paralytic upon his bed through the opening into the presence of the Great Healer. The room was probably an upper-chamber, which often extended over the whole area of the house. For other notices of such upper-rooms compare Acts 1:13; Acts 9:37; Acts 20:8.

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 cum non possent offerre eum illi præ turba, nudaverunt tectum ubi erat : et patefacientes submiserunt grabatum in quo paralyticus jacebat.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

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.

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.

δύναμαι, transliterated as dunamai, means 'to be able' or 'to have power.' It can refer to personal ability, permission, or opportunity. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Matthew 6:24 and Mark 2:7. The lexicons indicate that it can be used with an infinitive or an accusative, but there is some variation in the forms and usages noted in different sources.

a'-b'-l: The Greek dunamai, "to have power," may refer either to inherent strength, or to the absence of in external obstacles, or to what may be allowable or permitted. The Greek ischuo, as in Lu 13:24; Joh 21:6, refers always to the first of the above meanings. The use of the word as an adjective the King James Version of 2Co 3:6, is misleading, and has been properly changed in the Revised Version (British and American) into "sufficient as ministers," i.e. "hath fitted us to be ministers."

προσφέρω is a verb meaning 'to bring to' or 'to offer,' often in the context of presenting gifts or sacrifices to God. It combines the elements of bringing something near and offering it, applicable in various contexts such as offerings in worship (e.g., Matthew 2:11) and dealing with others (Hebrews 12:7). The word appears frequently in the New Testament and is rooted in both classical and biblical Greek.

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.

διά (dia) is a preposition meaning 'through' and can govern both the genitive and accusative cases. It covers a range of uses, including indicating motion through space or time, causation, and means or instrumentality. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Matthew 2:12 and Romans 8:25. The lexicons do not present significant disagreement regarding its meanings.

Prep — Prepositionpreposition — its sense depends on the case of the word it governs.
PREP PREPosition
ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.
Lamentations 3:1.
The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

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.

The Greek word ὄχλος (i.e., *ochlos*) refers to a moving crowd or multitude of people, often implying a throng or mob. It can denote the common people in a political sense, contrasting with the elite. The New Testament frequently uses it to describe gatherings of people, as seen in verses like Matthew 5:1 and John 7:49. The entries do not present significant disagreement.

ἀποστεγάζω is built from the prefix ἀπο- meaning 'away from' and a derivative of στέγη, meaning 'roof'. It means to unroof or uncover, particularly noted in Mark 2:4 where a roof is removed to access Jesus. The entries consistently emphasize this action of taking off a covering.
** ἀπο-στεγάζω

[in Sm.: Je 49:10 (29:11)*;]
to unroof: Mk 2:4.†
ἀπο-στεγάζω: 1 aor. ἀπεστέγασα; (στεγάζω, fr. στέγη) ; to uncover, take off the roof: Mk. ii. 4 (Jesus, with his hearers, was in the ὑπερῷον q. v., and it was the roof of this which those who were bringing the sick man to Jesus are said to have ‘dug out’; [cf. B. D. s. v. House, p. 1104]). (Strabo 4, 4, 6, p. 303; 8, 3, 30, p. 542.)

1 occurrences in the New Testament, rendered 1 different way. The commonest English word for it is not its meaning — it is one translator's decision, repeated.
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.

The Greek word στέγη (stegē) means 'roof' and can also refer to a roofed space or dwelling. It appears in the New Testament in contexts related to entering houses (e.g., Mt 8:8, Mk 2:4, Lk 7:6). The word is derived from the verb στέγω meaning 'to cover.' While the primary meaning is consistent, some sources note its use in various contexts, such as chambers or upper stories.

The Greek word ὅπου (i.e., *hopou*) is an adverb meaning 'where' or 'whither.' It is derived from two components and is used in various contexts, including relative clauses and indirect questions. The New Testament employs it to denote locations and conditions, as seen in verses like Matthew 6:19 and Revelation 2:13. It can also express time or cause, as noted in 1 Corinthians 3:3.

εἰμί is a Greek verb meaning 'to be' or 'to exist.' It serves various functions, such as a substantive verb for persons and things, and as a copula linking subjects and predicates. The New Testament frequently uses it in passages like John 1:1 and Matthew 24:3. Notably, it can also express possibility, as seen in Hebrews 9:5.

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.

The Greek word ἐξορύσσω (i.e., *exorusso*) means to dig out or to extract. It can refer literally to digging through surfaces like roofs (Mark 2:4) or metaphorically to plucking out eyes (Galatians 4:15). The term is built from the prefix ἐξ- (out) and ορύσσω (to dig). There is some debate among lexicographers about the metaphorical implications in Galatians.
ἐξορύσσω: 1 aor. ptcp. e€opvéavres; fr. Hdt. down ; 1. to dig out: τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς (prop. to pluck out the eyes; so Judg. xvi. 21 [Alex.]; 1S. xi. 2; Hdt. 8, 116; Joseph. antt. 6, 5, 1; Leian. dial. deor. 1, 1; al.) καὶ διδόναι τινί, metaph. to renounce the most precious things for another’s advantage, Gal. iv. 15 (similar expressions see in Ter. adelph. 4, 5, 67; Hor. sat. 2, 5, 35; [Wetstein ad loc.]); in opposition to a very few interp. who, assuming that Paul suffered from a weakness of the eyes, understand the words literally, “ Ye would have plucked out your sound eyes and have put them into me,” see Meyer ad loc.; [ef. reff. s. v. σκόλοψ, fin.]. 2. to dig through: τὴν στέγην, Mk. ii. 4.
ἐξορύσσω (exorussō) — to dig through/out.

The Greek word χαλάω (chalaō) means to slacken, loosen, or let down. It can refer to lowering something from a higher to a lower position, as seen in several New Testament passages like Mark 2:4 and Luke 5:4. The word can also imply a release or letting go, and it has both transitive and intransitive uses. There is some variation in how lexicons describe its nuances, particularly regarding its metaphorical applications.

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.

The Greek word κράβαττος (lemma: krabbatos) refers to a type of bed or mattress, often a simple pallet. It is noted as a Macedonian term and appears multiple times in the New Testament, particularly in the context of healing and carrying individuals. Variants of the word exist, but the primary meaning remains consistent across sources.

The Greek word ὅπου (i.e., *hopou*) is an adverb meaning 'where' or 'whither.' It is derived from two components and is used in various contexts, including relative clauses and indirect questions. The New Testament employs it to denote locations and conditions, as seen in verses like Matthew 6:19 and Revelation 2:13. It can also express time or cause, as noted in 1 Corinthians 3:3.

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.

κατάκειμαι (katakeimai) means to lie down or recline, often in the context of being sick or resting. It can also refer to reclining at meals, as seen in several New Testament passages like Mark 1:30 and Luke 5:25. The word is built from the prefix κατά and the root κεῖμαι. Some entries note its use in various contexts, including lying idle or stored up, but no significant disagreements among lexicons are present.
