Bond:
from deo, "to bind" (see BAND), is usually found in the plural, either masculine or neuter;
(a) it stands thus for the actual "bonds" which bind a prisoner, as in Luk 8:29; Act 16:26; 20:23 (the only three places where the neuter plural is used); Act 22:30;
(b) the masculine plural stands frequently in a figurative sense for "a condition of imprisonment," Phl 1:7, 13, i.e., "so that my captivity became manifest as appointed for the cause of Christ;" Phl 1:14, 16; Col 4:18; 2Ti 2:9; Phm 1:10, 13; Hbr 10:34.
In Mar 7:35 "the bond (AV string)" stands metaphorically for "the infirmity which caused an impediment in his speech." So in Luk 13:16, of the infirmity of the woman who was bowed together.
See BAND, CHAIN, STRING.
