Sick [σ υ ν ε χ ο μ ε ν ο ν]. Lit., taken or holden. See on taken, Luke 4:38. Fever [π υ ρ ε τ ο ι ς]. Lit., fevers. This peculiarly medical use of the plural is confined to Luke in the New Testament. It denotes successive and varying attacks of fever.

Bloody flux [δ υ σ ε ν τ ε ρ ι α]. Only here in New Testament. Our word dysentery is nearly a transcript of it. Hippocrates often speaks of the two complaints in combination.

Healed [ι α σ α τ ο]. See on Luke 6:19.
