    • 6:61

      Does this stumble you?: Or “Does this cause you to take offense?” or “Does this cause you to believe no longer?” In the Christian Greek Scriptures, the Greek word skan·da·liʹzo refers to stumbling in a figurative sense, often with reference to falling into sin or causing someone to fall into sin. Depending on the context, stumbling may involve breaking one of God’s laws on morals, losing faith, accepting false teachings, or taking offense.​—See study notes on Mt 5:29; 18:7.
