Difference between revisions of "Rabboni"

<div> 1: Ῥαββουνί (Strong'S #4462 — Noun Masculine — rabbounei | rabboni — hrab-bon-ee', <i> hrab-boo-nee' </i> ) </div> <p> formed in a similar way to the above, was an [[Aramaic]] form of a title almost entirely applied to the president of the Sanhedrin, if such was a descendant of Hillel. It was even more respectful than Rabbi, and signified "My great master;" in its use in the NT the pronominal force of the suffix is apparently retained (contrast [[Rabbi]] above); it is found in Mark 10:51 in the best texts, RV, "Rabboni" (AV, "Lord"), addressed to [[Christ]] by blind Bartimaeus, and in John 20:16 by [[Mary]] Magdalene, where it is interpreted by didaskalos, "Master" (marg., "Teacher"). </p>

<p> <b> RABBONI </b> <b> ( </b> from Heb. רַבָּן or דַבּוֹן) is another form of ‘Rabbi,’ but was considered a higher and more honourable title. Hence possibly its preference by the blind man (Mark 10:51) in his natural anxiety to address [[Jesus]] with the title of greatest courtesy and respect that he knew. The word occurs only twice in the Gospels, viz. Mark 10:51 (Revised Version NT 1881, OT 1885 following the reading of most authorities), and John 20:16 (ῥαββουνί, Textus Receptus; ῥαββουνεί, WH [Note: H Westcott and Hort’s text.] ). In the latter passage it is explained as a synonym for διδάσκαλος. </p> <p> Dugald Clark. </p>

<p> ( ῾Ραββουνί, or ῾Ραββονί ‘, for Chaldaic רִבָּנַי, my master ), the title of highest honor applied by the [[Jews]] to the teachers of the law. (See [[Rabbi]]). In Mark 10:51 (where it is translated "Lord"), and John 20:16, it is applied to Christ; but, as it seems to us, rather in its literal acceptation than with reference to the conventional distinction which it implied (if such distinction then existed) in the [[Jewish]] schools. There were but seven great professors, all of the school of Hillel, to whom the title was publicly given. There is some difference as to their names, and even the [[Talmud]] varies in its statements. But the only one there whose name occurs in [[Scripture]] is Gamaliel, unless, indeed, as some suppose, the agued Simeon, who blessed the infant [[Saviour]] (Luke 2:25), was the same as the Rabban [[Simeon]] of the Talmud. (See [[Simeon]]). </p>
