Matthew 8:2

καὶ ἰδού, λεπρὸς ἐλθὼν προσεκύνει αὐτῷ, λέγων, Κύριε, ἐὰν θέλῃς, δύνασαί με καθαρίσαι.

RBT Translation:

Drawn out of the Sea

And behold! a scaly one²⁰ who has drawn near was prostrating/kissing to self, he who is saying "Master, if you are desiring, you have power to cleanse myself."

Scaly self.

λέπρα, λέπρας, ἡ (from the adjective λεπρός), Hebrew צָרַעַת, "leprosy" literally, morbid scaliness, a most offensive, annoying, dangerous, cutaneous disease, the virus of which generally pervades the whole body...

Julia Smith Literal 1876 Translation:
And, behold, a leper, having come, worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt thou canst cleanse me.

LITV Translation:
And behold, coming up, a leper worshiped Him, saying, Lord, If You will, You are able to cleanse me.

Two Kinds of "Pastures"/"Garments"

The phrase "ὁ Θεὸς οὕτως ἀμφιέννυσιν" translates to "God thus is enrobing" or "The God is putting on in this way."

• ὁ Θεὸς (ho Theos): "the God"
• οὕτως (houtōs): "thus" or "in this way."
• ἀμφιέννυσιν (amphiennyisin): This is a verb meaning "clothes" or "wraps around." It comes from the verb ἀμφιέννυμι, which can mean to clothe, cover, or envelop.

The form ἀμφιέννυσιν is a third-person singular present indicative form of the verb ἀμφιέννυμι, which means "he/she/it puts round or on." The connection here is that ἀμφιέννυσιν specifically describes the action of clothing or dressing being performed in the present tense.

In the context of this verse, "ὁ Θεὸς οὕτως ἀμφιέννυσιν," is written toward the end, and can be translated as "God thus clothes himself" or "God thus puts on [clothing]." This indicates that the subject (God) is actively engaging in the act of putting on or dressing in a specific manner that was described. The connection to the accusative "the Pasture" defines the "clothing" being put on, rather than what is being clothed, and likewise the accusative ὑμᾶς yourselves.
