Beg, Beggar, Beggarly:
lit., "to ask besides" (pros, "towards," used intensively, and aiteo), "to ask earnestly, to importune, continue asking," is said of the blind beggar in Jhn 9:8. In Mar 10:46; Luk 18:35 certain mss. have this verb; the most authentic have prosaites, "a beggar," a word used in Jhn 9:8, as well as the verb (see the RV).

Beg, Beggar, Beggarly:
an adjective describing "one who crouches and cowers," is used as a noun, "a beggar" (from ptosso, "to cower down or hide oneself for fear"), Luk 14:13, 21 ("poor"); Luk 16:20, 22; as an adjective "beggarly" in Gal 4:9, i.e., poverty-stricken, powerless to enrich, metaphorically descriptive of the religion of the Jews.
While prosaites is descriptive of a "beggar," and stresses his "begging," ptochos stresses his poverty-stricken condition.
See POOR.
