It conveys the idea of being free from blame or reproach, and is used to describe individuals or actions that are pure and upright in the sight of God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of being blameless was highly valued, especially in the context of religious and civic duties. The idea of being without blemish was also significant in Jewish culture, particularly in relation to sacrificial offerings, which were required to be without defect. In the New Testament, this term is often used to describe the moral and spiritual integrity expected of believers, reflecting the holiness and purity of God.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 298</b> <i>amṓmētos</i> (an adjective, derived from <a href="/greek/1.htm">1</a> <i>/A</i> "not" and <a href="/greek/3649.htm">3649</a> <i>/ololýzō</i>, "blame") – without blame – literally, without <i>mōmos</i> ("<i>blemish</i>"), used only in 2 Pet 3:14. <a href="/greek/299.htm">See 299</a> (<i>amōmos</i>).</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/1.htm">alpha</a> (as a neg. prefix) and <a href="/greek/3469.htm">mómaomai</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>blameless<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>blameless (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 298: ἀμώμητος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀμώμητος</span></span>, (<span class="greek2">μωμάομαι</span>), <span class="accented">that cannot be censured, blameless</span>: <a href="/interlinear/philippians/2-15.htm">Philippians 2:15</a> <span class="manuref">R</span> <span class="manuref">G</span> (cf. <span class="greek2">τέκνα</span> <span class="greek2">μωμητά</span>, <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/32-5.htm">Deuteronomy 32:5</a>); <a href="/interlinear/2_peter/3-14.htm">2 Peter 3:14</a>.
