Disease, Diseased (Be):

lit., "lacking strength" (a, negative, sthenos, "strength"), "weakness, infirmity," is translated "diseases" in Mat 8:17, RV, for AV, "sicknesses," and in Act 28:9. Its usual rendering is "infirmity" or "infirmities;" "sickness," in Jhn 11:4. Cp. B, No. 1.

A-2 Noun Strong's Number: g3119 Greek: malakia

Disease, Diseased (Be):

primarily denotes "softness" (cp. malakos, "soft," Mat 11:8, etc.); hence, "debility, disease." It is found in Matthew only, Mat 4:23; 9:35; 10:1. It is frequent in the Sept., e.g., Gen 42:4; 44:29; Deu 7:15; 28:61; Isa 38:9; 53:3.
