What does the word “indignant” mean?

Mark 10:14 (ESV)

14 But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.

The Greek word translated here as “indignant” means “to be roused to anger.” Jesus was angry when he saw what his disciples were doing.
