from en, "in," and brime, "strength," is rendered "groaned" in John 11:33 (preferable to the RV marg., "He had indignation"); so in John 11:38 . The Lord was deeply moved doubtless with the combination of circumstances, present and in the immediate future. Indignation does not here seem to express His feelings. See CHARGE.
see GRIEVE , B, No. 3.
"to groan together" (sun, "with," and No. 2) is used of the Creation in Romans 8:22 . In Romans 8:23 , No. 2 is used.
akin to A, No. 2, is used in Acts 7:34 , in a quotation from Exodus 3:7 , but not from the Sept., which there has krauge, "a cry;" the word is used, however, in Exodus 2:24; in Romans 8:26 , in the plural, of the intercessory groanings of the Holy Spirit.
