δεξιο-λάβος G1187
Spearmen, light-armed soldiers
Soldiers equipped with spears, possibly light infantry or guards who fought with throwing spears. Acts 23:23 records the Roman commander ordering two hundred soldiers, seventy cavalry, and two hundred spearmen to escort Paul to Caesarea. The large force reveals the seriousness with which the Romans treated the Jewish plot against Paul's life, deploying substantial military resources to protect one prisoner.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Designates soldiers armed with spears, though the exact military role remains somewhat unclear. The etymology suggests those who hold with the right hand, possibly spearmen or javelin throwers. In Acts 23:23, the tribune mobilizes these troops as part of a 470-soldier nighttime convoy to transfer Paul safely from Jerusalem to the governor in Caesarea, reflecting either the genuine threat level from Paul's enemies or the commander's determination to prevent any incident that might spark wider unrest. 1×
