The attested use describes going past a person after seeing him: both the priest and the Levite do so in the same roadside scene.

Senses in use

  1. Go past after seeing someone · dominant

    The same aorist active indicative singular form occurs when the priest sees the man and goes on in Luke 10:31 and when the Levite comes, sees him, and does likewise in Luke 10:32. In both verses, the APB renders the action "he passed by."

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across Luke 10:31 and Luke 10:32, the APB presents the action with the identical wording, "he passed by." This rendering confirms the clause-level action rather than isolating every nuance of the term.
