???????????????? zqyph what does it exactly mean? - distazo - 02-02-2009

Hello All!

I come across the following issue. eg. Mark 15:21.
What exactly, was taken up? A cross or a wooden stake?

(I know this is of minor importance! The fact that the Messiah gave up his life for us, is of much more importance)

The Greek word 'stauros' indicates stake, (there is a todays Greek word for 'cross' (??????????????????) pola-plus)

What does the Aramaic root of 5903 exactly mean?

Thanks!
