It implies a conscious decision to pass over or not to take notice of a particular matter. In the context of the New Testament, it often refers to God's merciful overlooking of human ignorance or sin.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of overlooking or disregarding was often associated with mercy or leniency. In a judicial context, it could mean choosing not to punish or hold someone accountable for a transgression. This idea is reflected in the biblical usage, where God's forbearance and patience are highlighted as He overlooks past ignorance to bring people to repentance.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/5228.htm">huper</a> and <a href="/greek/1491.htm">eidon</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to overlook<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>overlooked (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 5237: ὑπερεῖδον</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ὑπερεῖδον</span></span>;
