Luke 18:25

Camel. See on Matthew 19:24.

To go through the eye of a needle [δ ι α τ ρ η μ α τ ο ς β ε λ ο ν η ς ε ι σ ε λ θ ε ι ν]. Rev., more literally, to enter in through a needle's eye. Both Matthew and Mark use another word for needle [ρ α φ ι ς]; see on Mark 10:25. Luke alone has belonh, which, besides being an older term, is the peculiar word for the surgical needle. The other word is condemned by the Greek grammatrians as barbarous.
