Translations: to be caused to stumble, to be offended, to be scandalized, to be made to fall away

From the root: ΣΚΑΝΔΑΛΙΖΩ

Part of Speech: Verb

Explanation: This word is the future passive infinitive form of the verb 'σκανδαλίζω' (skandalizo). It means 'to be caused to stumble' or 'to be offended'. In ancient Greek, 'σκανδαλίζω' originally referred to setting a trap or snare, causing someone to trip or fall. Metaphorically, it came to mean causing someone to stumble morally or spiritually, leading them into sin or apostasy, or causing them to take offense and abandon their faith or principles. The passive voice indicates that the subject is the one being caused to stumble or offended, and the infinitive form means 'to be' in this state in the future.
