1 Strong's Number: g4494 Greek: rhipizo

Toss:

primarily "to fan a fire" (rhipis, "a fan," cp. rhipe, "twinkling"), then, "to make a breeze," is used in the Passive Voice in Jam 1:6, "tossed," of the raising of waves by the wind.

2 Strong's Number: g2831 Greek: kludonizomai

Toss:

signifies "to be tossed by billows" (kludon, "a billow"); metaphorically, in Eph 4:14, of an unsettled condition of mind influenced and agitated by one false teaching and another, and characterized by that immaturity which lacks the firm conviction begotten by the truth. In the Sept., Isa 57:20.

Note: For "being... tossed," Act 27:18, see LABOR, B, No. 2.
