It is a significant theme throughout the Scriptures, emphasizing the importance of discipline, wisdom, and moral integrity.<br><br><b>Old Testament Context</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, reproof is closely associated with wisdom literature, particularly in the Book of Proverbs. <a href="/proverbs/1-23.htm">Proverbs 1:23</a> states, "If you had repented at my rebuke, then surely I would have poured out my spirit on you; I would have made my words known to you." Here, reproof is linked with repentance and the promise of divine wisdom. The wise person is one who heeds reproof, as seen in <a href="/proverbs/9-8.htm">Proverbs 9:8</a> : "Do not rebuke a mocker, or he will hate you; rebuke a wise man, and he will love you."<br><br>Reproof is also seen as a tool for instruction and growth. <a href="/proverbs/15-31.htm">Proverbs 15:31</a> declares, "He who listens to life-giving reproof will dwell among the wise." This suggests that accepting correction is a pathway to wisdom and understanding. Conversely, rejecting reproof is associated with folly and destruction, as noted in <a href="/proverbs/12.htm">Proverbs 12:1</a> : "Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates correction is stupid."<br><br><b>New Testament Context</b><br><br>In the New Testament, reproof continues to play a vital role in the life of believers and the church. The Apostle Paul emphasizes the importance of reproof in the context of church leadership and community life. In <a href="/2_timothy/3-16.htm">2 Timothy 3:16</a> , Paul writes, "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for instruction, for conviction, for correction, and for training in righteousness." Here, reproof is part of the broader purpose of Scripture, serving as a means to correct and guide believers in their spiritual journey.<br><br>Reproof is also a responsibility of church leaders. In <a href="/titus/1-13.htm">Titus 1:13</a> , Paul instructs, "This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sternly, so that they will be sound in the faith." This highlights the role of reproof in maintaining doctrinal purity and spiritual health within the church.<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>Theologically, reproof is an expression of God's love and care for His people. <a href="/hebrews/12-5.htm">Hebrews 12:5-6</a> reminds believers, "And you have forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons: 'My son, do not take lightly the discipline of the Lord, and do not lose heart when He rebukes you. For the Lord disciplines the one He loves, and He chastises every son He receives.'" Reproof, therefore, is not merely punitive but is intended for the believer's growth and maturity in faith.<br><br><b>Practical Application</b><br><br>In practical terms, reproof requires humility and a willingness to accept correction. It is an essential aspect of discipleship and community life, fostering accountability and spiritual growth. Believers are encouraged to approach reproof with a spirit of love and gentleness, as instructed in <a href="/galatians/6.htm">Galatians 6:1</a> : "Brothers, if someone is caught in a trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him with a spirit of gentleness. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted."<br><br>Reproof, when administered and received in a spirit of love and humility, serves as a powerful tool for personal and communal transformation, aligning believers more closely with the character and will of God.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

Hence, a fairly easy rendition into English was possible, but the result included all the ambiguities of the original, and to modern readers such a passage as "But your reproof, what doth it reprove? Do ye think to reprove words" (<a href="/job/6-25.htm">Job 6:25, 26</a> the American Standard Revised Version) is virtually incomprehensible. The meaning is, approximately: "What do your rebukes prove? Are you quibbling about words?" In <a href="/john/16-8.htm">John 16:8</a> no single word in modern English will translate elegcho, and "reprove" (the King James Version), "convince" (King James Version margin), and "convict" (Revised Version) are all unsatisfactory. The sense is: "The Spirit will teach men the true meaning of these three words: sin, righteousness, judgment."<br><br>Burton Scott Easton<p><a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/1649.htm"><span class="l">1649. elegxis -- <b>reproof</b></span></a> <br><b>...</b> <b>reproof</b>.
