| 1 | Strong's Number: g3788 | Greek: ophthalmos |
Eye:
akin to opsis, "sight," probably from a root signifying "penetration, sharpness" (Curtius, Gk. Etym.) (cp. Eng., "ophthalmia," etc.). is used
(a) of the physical organ, e.g., Mat 5:38; of restoring sight, e.g., Mat 20:33; of God's power of vision, Hbr 4:13; 1Pe 3:12; of Christ in vision, Rev 1:14; 2:18; 19:12; of the Holy Spirit in the unity of Godhood with Christ, Rev 5:6;
(b) metaphorically, of ethical qualities, evil, Mat 6:23; Mar 7:22 (by metonymy, for envy); singleness of motive, Mat 6:22; Luk 11:34; as the instrument of evil desire, "the principal avenue of temptation," 1Jo 2:16; of adultery, 2Pe 2:14;
(c) metaphorically, of mental vision, Mat 13:15; Jhn 12:40; Rom 11:8; Gal 3:1, where the metaphor of the "evil eye" is altered to a different sense from that of bewitching (the posting up or placarding of an "eye" was used as a charm, to prevent mischief); by Gospel-preaching Christ had been, so to speak, placarded before their "eyes;" the question may be paraphrased, "What evil teachers have been malignly fascinating you?;" Eph 1:18, of the "eyes of the heart," as a means of knowledge.
| 2 | Strong's Number: g3659 | Greek: omma |
Eye:
"sight," is used in the plural in Mat 20:34 (No. 1 is used in ver. 33); Mar 8:23 (No. 1 is used in ver. 25). The word is more poetical in usage than No. 1, and the writers may have changed the word with a view to distinguishing the simple desire of the blind man from the tender act of the Lord Himself.
