Observe
VIEW:23 DATA:01-04-2020
OBSERVE.Mar_6:20 Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed him. The meaning of the Eng. word observed is reverenced. Tindales translation is gave him reverence. Cf. Shaks. 2 Henry IV. iv. iv. 30, he is gracious, if he be observed. But the more probable meaning of the Greek is protected him, or, as RV [Note: Revised Version.] , kept him safe.

ob-zûrv? (representing various words, but chiefly שמר, shāmar, ?to keep,? ?to watch? etc.): Properly means ?to take heed to,? as in Isa_42:20, ?Thou seest many things, but thou observest not? and from this sense all the usages of the word in English Versions of the Bible can be understood. Most of them, indeed are quite good modern usage (as ?observe a feast,? Exo_12:17, etc.; ?observe a law? Lev_19:37, etc.), but a few are archaic. So Gen_37:11, the King James Version ?His father observed the saying? (the Revised Version (British and American) ?kept the saying in mind?); Hos_13:7, ?As a leopard ... will I observe them? (the Revised Version (British and American) ?watch?); Jon_2:8, ?observe lying vanities? (the Revised Version (British and American) ?regard,? but ?give heed to? would be clearer; compare Psa_107:43). Still farther from modern usage is Hos_14:8, ?I have heard him, and observed him? (the Revised Version (British and American) ?will regard?; the meaning is ?care for?); and Mar_6:20, ?For Herod feared John ... and observed him? (the Revised Version (British and American) ?kept him safe?). In the last case, the King James Version editors seem to have used ?to observe? as meaning ?to give reverence to.?
Observation is found in Luk_17:20, ?The kingdom of God cometh not with observation? (μετὰ τηρήσεως, metá paratērḗseōs). The meaning of the English is, ?so that it can be observed,? but the exact force of the underlying Greek (?visibly?? ?so that it can be computed in advance??) is a matter of extraordinary dispute at the present time. See KINGDOM OF GOD.
