It is often applied to love, faith, and wisdom, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in the Christian life. This adjective underscores the call for believers to live out their faith and relationships with integrity and truthfulness.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of hypocrisy was well understood, as actors in theaters would wear masks to portray different characters. The term "hypocrite" originally referred to these actors. In a broader cultural context, being genuine was highly valued, especially in philosophical and ethical discussions. The early Christian community, living in a society where public personas often masked true intentions, was called to a higher standard of authenticity, reflecting the character of Christ.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>505</b> <i>anypókritos</i> (an adjective, derived from alpha-privative <a href="/greek/1.htm">1</a> <i>/A</i> "not" and <a href="/greek/5271.htm">5271</a> <i>/hypokrínomai</i>, "to act as a hypocrite") – properly, <i>not a phony</i> ("put on"), describing sincere behavior free from hidden agendas (selfish motives) – literally, "without <i>hypocrisy</i>" (unfeigned).</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><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/5271.htm">hupokrinomai</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>unhypocritical, unfeigned<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>genuine (1), sincere (3), without hypocrisy (2).<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 505: ἀνυπόκριτος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀνυπόκριτος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἀνυπόκριτον</span> (alpha privative and <span class="greek2">ὑποκρίνομαι</span>), <span class="accented">unfeigned, undisguised</span>: <a href="/interlinear/romans/12-9.htm">Romans 12:9</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_corinthians/6-6.htm">2 Corinthians 6:6</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_timothy/1-5.htm">1 Timothy 1:5</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_timothy/1-5.htm">2 Timothy 1:5</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_peter/1-22.htm">1 Peter 1:22</a>; <a href="/interlinear/james/3-17.htm">James 3:17</a> (Wis. 5:19 Wis. 18:16.
