Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 994: βοάω βοάω, βόω; (imperfect ἐβόων, Acts 21:34 Rec.); 1 aorist ἐβόησα; (βοή); from Homer down; in the Sept. mostly for קָרָא, זָעַק, צָעַק, to cry aloud, shout (Latinboo); 1. to raise a cry: of joy, Galatians 4:27 (from Isaiah 54:1); of pain, Matthew 27:46 L marginal reading Tr WH; Acts 8:7. 2. to cry i. e. speak with a high, strong voice: Matthew 3:3, Mark 1:3, Luke 3:4, John 1:23 (all from Isaiah 40:3); Mark 15:34; Luke 9:38 (R G ἀναβοάω); (Luke 18:38); Acts 17:6; Acts 21:34 Rec.; (R G ἐπιβοάω). 3. πρός τινα to cry to one for help, implore his aid: Luke 18:7 (T Tr WH αὐτῷ; cf. Winer's Grammar, 212 (199)) (1 Samuel 7:8; 1 Chronicles 5:20; Hosea 7:14, etc. for אֶל זָעַק). (Compare: ἀναβοάω, ἐπιβοάω.) [SYNONYMS: βοάω, καλέω, κράζω, κραυγάζω: It is not uninstructive to notice that ill classic usage καλεῖν denotes 'to cry out' for a purpose, to call; βοᾶν to cry out as a manifestation of feeling; κράζειν to cry out harshly, often of an inarticulate and brutish sound; thus καλεῖν suggests intelligence; βοᾶν sensibilities; κράζειν instincts; hence, βοᾶν especially a cry for help. κραυγάζειν, intensive of κράζω, denotes to cry coarsely, in contempt, etc. Cf. Schmidt, chapter 3.] Forms and Transliterations ἀνεβόησεν βοά βοάν βοάς βόας βοάτε βοήσαι βοήσαντες βοήσας βοήσατε βοήσει βοήσεσθε βοήσεται βοήση βοήσομαι βοησόμεθα βοησον βοήσον βόησον βόησόν βοήσονται βοήσουσι βοήσω βοωντα βοώντα βοῶντα βοωντες βοώντες βοῶντες βοωντος βοώντος βοῶντος βοωντων βοώντων βοώσα εβόα εβόησα εβοήσαμεν εβοήσαν εβόησαν εβόησε εβοησεν εβόησεν ἐβόησεν εβόων aneboesen aneboēsen anebóesen anebóēsen boeson boēson bóeson bóēson boonta boônta boōnta boō̂nta boontes boôntes boōntes boō̂ntes boonton boōntōn boṓnton boṓntōn boontos boôntos boōntos boō̂ntos eboesen eboēsen ebóesen ebóēsen Links Interlinear Greek • Interlinear Hebrew • Strong's Numbers • Englishman's Greek Concordance • Englishman's Hebrew Concordance • Parallel Texts
