ἁμαρτία to sin, 2 Th. ii. 3 [W. § 34, 3 Note 2]. In this sense 🇬🇷 (i. q. 🇬🇷) as a power exercising dominion over men (sin as a principle and power) is rhetorically represented as an imperial personage in the phrases 🇬🇷, Ro. v. 21; vi. 12, 14; vii. 17, 20; 🇬🇷 Ro. vi. 6; 🇬🇷 Jn. viii. 34 [WH br. G om. 🇬🇷]; Ro. vi. 17; 🇬🇷 the dictate of sin or an impulse proceeding from it, Ro. vii. 23; viii. 2; 🇬🇷 1 Co. xv. 56; (the prosopopœia occurs in Gen. iv. 7 and, acc. to the reading 🇬🇷, in Sir. xxvii. 10). Thus 🇬🇷 in sense, but not in signification, is the source whence the several evil acts proceed; but it never denotes vitiosity. &emsp; 2. that which is done wrong, committed or resultant sin, an offence, a violation of the divine law in thought or in act (🇬🇷, 1 Jn. iii. 4); &ensp; a. generally: Jas. i. 15; Jn. viii. 46 (where 🇬🇷 must be taken to mean neither error, nor craft by which Jesus is corrupting the people, but sin viewed generally, as is well shown by Lücke ad loc. and Ullmann in the Stud. u. Krit. for 1842, p. 667 sqq. [cf. his Sündlosigkeit Jesu p. 66 sqq. (Eng. trans. of 7th ed. p. 71 sq.)]; the thought is, ‘If any one convicts me of sin, then you may lawfully question the truth and divinity of my doctrine, for sin hinders the perception of truth’); 🇬🇷 so that he did not commit sin, Heb. iv. 15; 🇬🇷 and 🇬🇷 Jn. viii. 34; 1 Jn. iii. 8; 2 Co. xi. 7; 1 Pet. ii. 22; 🇬🇷 to have sin as though it were one’s odious private property, or to have done something needing expiation, i. q. to have committed sin, Jn. ix. 41; xv. 22, 24; xix. 11; 1 Jn. i. 8, (So 🇬🇷, of one who has committed murder, Eur. Or. 514); very often in the plur. 🇬🇷 [in the Synopt. Gospels the sing. occurs but once: Mt. xii. 31]: 1 Th. ii. 16; [Jas. v. 16 L T Tr WH]; Rev. xviii. 4 sq., etc.; 🇬🇷, Jas. v. 20; 1 Pet. iv. 8; 🇬🇷, Jas. v. 15; also in the expressions 🇬🇷, etc. (see 🇬🇷, 1 d.), in which the word does not of itself denote the guilt or penalty of sins, but the sins are conceived of as removed so to speak from God’s sight, regarded by him as not having been done, and therefore are not punished. 🇬🇷 thou wast covered all over with sins when thou wast born, i.e. didst sin abundantly before thou wast born, Jn. ix. 34; 🇬🇷 to die loaded with evil deeds, therefore unreformed, Jn. viii. 24; 🇬🇷 still to have one’s sins, sc. unexpiated, 1 Co. xv. 17. &ensp; b. some particular evil deed: 🇬🇷, Acts vii. 60; 🇬🇷, Mt. xii. 31; 🇬🇷, 1 Jn. v. 16 (an offence of such gravity that a Christian lapses from the state of ζωή received from Christ into the state of 🇬🇷 (cf. 🇬🇷, 2) in which he was before he became united to Christ by faith; cf. Lücke, DeWette, [esp. Westcott, ad l.]). &emsp; 3. collectively, the complex or aggregate of sins committed either by a single person or by many: 🇬🇷, Jn. i. 29 (see 🇬🇷, 3 c.) 🇬🇷 Jn. viii. 21 (see 2 a. sub fin.); 🇬🇷, sc. 🇬🇷 [W. 583 (542); B. 393 (336)], expiatory sacrifices, Heb. x. 6 (acc. to the usage of the Sept., who sometimes so translate the Hebr. and, e. g. Lev. v. 11; vii. 27 (37); Ps. xxxix. (xl.) 7); 🇬🇷 having no fellowship with the sin which he is about [?] to expiate, Heb. ix. 28. &emsp; 4. abstract for the concrete, i. q. 🇬🇷: Ro. vii. 7 (🇬🇷, opp. to 🇬🇷, vs. 12); 2 Co. v. 21 (🇬🇷 he treated him, who knew not sin, as a sinner). Cf. Fritzsche on Rom. vol. i. 289 sqq.; [see 🇬🇷; Trench § lxvi.].

🇬🇷, 🇬🇷, (🇬🇷), without witness or testimony, unattested: Acts xiv. 17. (Thuc., Dem., Joseph., Plut., Lcian., Hdian.)*

🇬🇷, 🇬🇷, (fr. the form 🇬🇷, as 🇬🇷 from 🇬🇷), devoted to sin, a (masc. or fem.) sinner. In the N. T. distinctions are so drawn that one is called 🇬🇷 who is &ensp; a. not free from sin. In this sense all men are sinners; as, Mt. ix. 13; Mk. ii. 17; Lk. v. 8, 32; xiii. 2; xviii. 13; Ro. iii. 7; v. [8], 19; 1 Tim. i. 15; Heb. vii. 26. &ensp; b. pre-eminently sinful, especially wicked; &ensp; α. univ. 1 Tim. i. 9; Jude 15; Mk. viii. 38; Lk. vi. 32–34; vii. 37, 39; xv. 7, 10; Jn. ix. 16, 24 sq. 31; Gal. ii. 17; Heb. xii. 3; Jas. iv. 8; v. 20; 1 Pet. iv. 18; 🇬🇷 itself is called 🇬🇷, Ro. vii. 13. &ensp; β. spec., of men stained with certain definite vices or crimes, e. g. the tax-gatherers: Lk. xv. 2; xviii. 13; xix. 7; hence the combination 🇬🇷, Mt. ix. 10 sq.; xi. 19; Mk. ii. 15 sq.; Lk. v. 30; vii. 34; xv. 1, heathen, called by the Jews sinners 🇬🇷 (1 Macc. i. 34; ii. 48, 62; Tob. xiii. 6): Mt. xxvi. 45 [?]; Mk. xiv. 41; Lk. xxiv. 7; Gal. ii. 15. (The word is found often in Sept., as the equiv. of and, and in the O. T. Apocr.; very seldom in Grk. writ., as Aristot. eth. Nic. 2, 9 p. 1109$a$, 33; Plut. de audiend. poët. 7, p. 25 c.)*

🇬🇷, 🇬🇷, (🇬🇷), in Grk. writ. [fr. Pind. down] commonly not to be withstood, invincible; more rarely abstaining from fighting, (Xen. Cyr. 4, 1, 16; Hell. 4, 4, 9); in the N. T. twice metaph. not contentious: 1 Tim. iii. 3; Tit. iii. 2.*

🇬🇷, 🇬🇷: 1 aor. 🇬🇷; (fr. 🇬🇷 together; hence to gather together, cf. Germ. sammeln; [al. regard the init. 🇬🇷 as euphonic and the word as allied to Lat. meto, Eng. mow, thus making the sense of cutting primary, and that of gathering in secondary; cf. Vaniček p. 673]); freq. in the Grk. poets, to reap, mow down: 🇬🇷, Jas. v. 4.*

🇬🇷, 🇬🇷, amethyst, a precious stone of a violet and purple color (Ex. xxviii. 19; acc. to Phavorinus so called 🇬🇷 [so Plut. quaest. conviv. iii. 1, 3, 6]): Rev. xxi. 20. [Cf B. D. s. v.]*

🇬🇷, 🇬🇷; fut. 🇬🇷; 1 aor. 🇬🇷: (fr. 🇬🇷, and this fr. 🇬🇷 priv. and 🇬🇷 to care for); very com. in prof. auth.; to be careless of, to neglect: 🇬🇷, Heb. ii. 3; viii. 9; 1 Tim. iv. 14; foll. by inf., 2 Pet. i. 12 R G; without a case, 🇬🇷 (not caring for what had just been said [Α. V. they made light of it]), Mt. xxii. 5.*

🇬🇷, 🇬🇷, (🇬🇷 to blame), blameless, deserving no censure (Tertull. irreprehensibilis), free from fault or defect: Lk. i. 6; Phil. ii. 15; iii. 6; 1 Th. iii. 13 [WH
