It often conveys a sense of moral or ethical repugnance, highlighting actions or behaviors that are deemed dishonorable or indecent according to biblical standards. In the New Testament, it is used to admonish believers to avoid conduct that would bring shame or dishonor to themselves or the body of Christ.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, honor and shame were pivotal social values. Honor was associated with public esteem and social standing, while shame was linked to public disgrace and loss of reputation. The early Christian community, living within this cultural context, was called to uphold a standard of conduct that reflected the holiness and righteousness of God, often countercultural to the prevailing societal norms.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/greek/153.htm">aischunó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>shameful<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>disgraceful (2), improper (1), sordid (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 150: αἰσχρός</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">αἰσχρός</span></span>, <span class="greek2">(ά</span>, (from <span class="greek2">αἶσχος</span> baseness, disgrace), <span class="accented">base, dishonorable</span>: <a href="/interlinear/1_corinthians/11-6.htm">1 Corinthians 11:6</a>;
