It can also denote a standing or position, but its primary usage in the biblical context is related to conflict and division.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, "stasis" was a common term used to describe civil unrest or factional disputes within a city-state. Such conflicts were often seen as threats to the stability and order of society. The New Testament usage reflects this understanding, highlighting the disruptive nature of rebellion and division, particularly in the context of the early Christian community and its interactions with the surrounding political structures.<div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 4714: στάσις</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">στάσις</span></span>, <span class="greek2">στάσεως</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (<span class="greek2">ἵστημι</span>); <p><span class="textheading">1.</span> <span class="accented">a standing, station, state</span>: <span class="greek2">ἔχειν</span> <span class="greek2">στάσιν</span>, <span class="accented">to stand, exist, have stability,</span> Latin<span class="latin">locum habere</span> (<span class="abbreviation">R.
