DefinitionShort: eye, normally including the eyelids
Glosses: eye
Comments: In a number of languages an important distinction is made between the eyes consisting of the eyeballs and the eyes covered or partially covered by the eyelids. In {S:04000902900008} and {S:04002003400014}, Jesus apparently touched the eyelids, not the eyeballs.

DefinitionShort: (an idiom, literally: to close the eyes) to be unwilling to learn and to evaluate something fairly
Glosses: ['to refuse to learn', 'to refuse to recognize']
Comments: In a number of languages there is a problem involved in a literal rendering of ‘to close the eyes,’ since this may be understood in a strictly literal sense or as denoting death.

DefinitionShort: (an idiom, literally: to blind the eyes) to cause someone to no longer have the capacity for understanding
Glosses: ['to cause to not understand', 'to make unable to comprehend']
Comments: Though in some languages there is a close relationship between the eyes and comprehension, in many languages it is simply impossible to use the idiom ‘to blind the eyes’ in speaking of ‘causing someone not to understand.’ The problem becomes particularly difficult in speaking of ‘darkness blinding the eyes’ as in {S:06200201100052}. People can understand how ‘bright light would blind the eyes,’ but it would be strange indeed to think of ‘darkness’ having such an effect. In the context of {S:06200201100052}, the darkness is, of course, not literal darkness but a state of sinfulness. Therefore, in some languages it may be necessary to translate ‘their sinfulness has made it impossible for them to understand’ or ‘because they sin, they cannot understand.’
