1: νοσέω

(Strong's #3552 — Verb — noseo — nos-eh'-o )

signifies "to be ill, to be ailing," whether in body or mind; hence, "to be taken with such a morbid interest in a thing as is tantamount to a disease, to dote," 1 Timothy 6:4 (marg., "sick"). The primary meaning of "dote" is to be foolish (cp. Jeremiah 50:36 , the evident meaning of noseo, in this respect, is "to be unsound."
