Adjective steira (barren) in the Gospels-Acts

(Translation from NRSV)


Luke

1: 7But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren (steira), and both were getting on in years.
1: 36And now, your relative Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is the sixth month for her who was said to be barren (steira).
23: 29For the days are surely coming when they will say, 'Blessed are the barren (steira), and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.'
