It implies a thorough and careful inquiry into a matter to ascertain the truth. In the New Testament, it is used to describe the process of examining or judging a situation or individual.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek and Roman societies, "anakrisis" was a preliminary examination or hearing conducted before a trial. It was a critical part of the judicial process, where evidence was gathered, and testimonies were evaluated to determine whether a case should proceed to a formal trial. This concept was familiar to the early Christian communities living under Roman rule, where legal proceedings were a part of daily life.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 351</b> <i>anákrisis</i> – a judicial examination. <a href="/greek/351.htm">351</a> (<i>anákrisis</i>) was an "<i>Athenian law term</i> for a preliminary investigation – distinct from the actual <i>krisis</i>, or trial" (J.
