1. to carry;

a. to carry some burden: τόν σταυρόν ὄπισθεν τίνος, Luke 23:26; to bear with oneself (which the Greek writings express by the middle) (A. V. to bring): τί, Luke 24:1; John 19:39.

b. to move by bearing; passive, like the Latinferor equivalent tomoveor, to be conveyed or borne, with a suggestion of speed or force (often so in secular authors from Homer down): of persons borne in a ship over the sea (A. V. to be driven), Acts 27:15, 17; of a gust of wind, to rush, Acts 2:2 (cf. Jeremiah 18:14); φωνή ἐνεχθεισα, was brought, came, 2 Peter 1:17, 18 (see ὑπό, I. 2 a.); of the mind, to be moved inwardly, prompted, ὑπό πνεύματος ἁγίου, 2 Peter 1:21; φέρομαι ἐπί τί (R.

c. according to a less frequent use to bear up, i. e. uphold (keep from falling): φέρων τά πάντα τῷ ῤήματι τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ, of God (the Son) the preserver of the universe, Hebrews 1:3 (so in the Targums and rabbinical writings סְבַל is often used, e. g. עולָמו סובֵל, of God; οὐ δυνήσομαι ἐγώ μόνος φέρειν τόν λαόν τοῦτον, Numbers 11:14, cf. 11; add, Deuteronomy 1:9, for נָשָׂא; τά μή (μέν) ὄντα φέρων καί τά πάντα γεννων, Philo, rer. div. haer. § 7; from native Greek writings we have φέρειν τήν πόλιν, Plutarch, Lucull. 6; cf. Bleek, Brief a. d. Hebrew ii. 1, p. 70f).

2. to bear i. e. endure (examples without number in Greek writings from Homer down; cf. Passow, under the word, B. I. 3; (Liddell and Scott, under the word A.
