It is an adjective that denotes moral purity and the absence of wrongdoing. In the New Testament, it is used to emphasize the sinlessness of an individual, often in the context of moral or spiritual discussions.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, concepts of sin and moral purity were often discussed in philosophical and religious contexts. The Jewish understanding of sin, rooted in the Hebrew Scriptures, emphasized the need for atonement and righteousness before God. The New Testament writers, drawing from this background, used terms like "anamartétos" to articulate the Christian understanding of sinlessness, particularly in relation to Jesus Christ and His redemptive work.<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/264.htm">hamartanó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>unerring, faultless<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>without sin (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 361: ἀναμάρτητος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀναμάρτητος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἀναμάρτητον</span> (from <span class="greek2">ἄν</span>, the alpha privative, and the form <span class="greek2">ἁμαρτέω</span>), <span class="accented">sinless,</span> both <span class="accented">one who has not sinned,</span> and <span class="accented">one who cannot sin</span>.
