Verb melei (to care about) in the Gospels-Acts

(Translation from NRSV with a few modifications for a more literal meaning)


John

12: 6(He said this not because he cared (melei) about the poor, but because he was a thief; he kept the common purse and used to steal what was put into it.)

Acts

18: 17Then all of them seized Sosthenes, the official of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the tribunal. But Gallio did not care (melei) about any of these things.
