Key Hebrew terms related to justice and impartiality include:<p> - H4941 (מִשְׁפָּט, mishpat) – judgment, justice<p> - H6664 (צֶדֶק, tsedeq) – righteousness<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The adverb ἀπροσωπολήμπτως is used to describe an action or judgment that is carried out without favoritism or bias. It emphasizes the impartial nature of God's judgment and the expectation that believers should emulate this attribute in their interactions with others.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, social status, wealth, and connections often influenced justice and personal interactions. Partiality was common, with people often favoring those of higher status or those who could offer something in return. The concept of impartiality, especially in judgment, was countercultural and highlighted the distinctiveness of Christian ethics, which were rooted in the character of God as just and impartial.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>adverb from a comp. of <a href="/greek/1.htm">alpha</a> (as a neg. prefix), <a href="/greek/4383.htm">prosópon</a> and <a href="/greek/2983.htm">lambanó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>not accepting the person, i.e. without respect of persons<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>impartially (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 678: ἀπροσωπολήπτως</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀπροσωπολήπτως</span></span> (<span class="greek2">ἀπροσωπολήμπτως</span> <span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">T</span> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span>; cf. references under Mu), a word of Hellenistic origin (alpha privative and <span class="greek2">προσωπολήπτης</span>, which see), <span class="accented">without respect of persons,</span> i. e. impartially: <a href="/interlinear/1_peter/1-17.htm">1 Peter 1:17</a> (Epistle of Barnabas 4, 12 [ET]; (<span class="abbreviation">Clement of Rome</span>, 1 Cor. 1, 3 [ET])).
