Thayer's Expanded Definition

καταναρκάω, κατανάρκω: future καταναρκήσω; 1 aorist κατενάρκησα; (ναρκάω to become numb, torpid; in the Sept. translation to affect with numbness, make torpid, Genesis 32:25, 32; Job 33:19; from νάρκη torpor); properly, to cause to grow numb or torpid; intransitive, to be to torpid, inactive, to the detriment of one; to weigh heavily upon, be burdensome to: τίνος (the genitive of person), 2 Corinthians 11:9 (); f (Hesychius κατενάρκησα. κατεβάρησα (others, ἐβαρυνα)); Jerome, ad Algas. 10 ((iv. 204, Benedict. edition)), discovers a Cilicism in this use of the word (cf. Winers Grammar, 27). Among secular authors used by Hippocrates alone, and in a passive sense, to be quite numb or stiff.

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

καταναρκάω, which in the NT is confined to 2 Corinthians 11:9; 2 Corinthians 12:13 f., is classed by Jerome (Ep. ad Algas. qu. 10) among Paul’s cilicisms. It may, however, have been a medical term in regular use, as it is found in Hippocrates (Art. 816 C) : cf. the simplex ναρκάω in Genesis 32:25; Genesis 32:32, Job 33:19, and ἀποναρκάω in Plut. De Liber. Educ. p. 8. The subst. νάρκα (Lob. Phryn. p, 331) = ";torpor"; is found in Menander Fragm, p. 143 : cf. M. Anton, x. 9 πτοία, νάρκα, δουλεία.
