Below are articles from the following dictionary:
Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Strong's Number: g3782 Greek: opheile

Debt:

"that which is owned" (see Note, below), is translated "debt" in Mat 18:32; in the plural, "dues," Rom 13:7; "(her) due," 1Cr 7:3, of conjugal duty: some texts here have opheilomenen (eunoian) "due (benevolence)," AV; the context confirms the RV.
See DUE.

2 Strong's Number: g3783 Greek: opheilema

Debt:

a longer form of No. 1, expressing a "debt" more concretely, is used

(a) literally, of that which is legally due, Rom 4:4;

(b) metaphorically, of sin as a "debt," because it demands expiation, and thus payment by way of punishment, Mat 6:12.

3 Strong's Number: g1156 Greek: daneion

Debt:

"a loan" (akin to danos, "a gift"), is translated "debt" in Mat 18:27 (RV, marg., "loan"), of the ten thousand talents debtor. Cp. daneizo, "to lend," and daneistes, "a money-lender, a creditor."

Note: In Mat 18:30, opheilo, "to owe," is translated "debt" in the AV (RV, "that which was due."). See DUE.
