Near synonyms 1 word
- παράπτωμα paráptōma · G3900 · transgression, sin
- Both terms denote transgression against divine law. παράπτωμα (paraptōma) emphasizes the act as a deviation or fall from the right path, encompassing both unintentional error and willful violation. παρανομία (paranomia) focuses more narrowly on the lawless character of the transgression itself. The limited attestation of παρανομία in the New Testament means its full range cannot be exhaustively compared, but the available evidence shows these as interchangeable terms for human violation of God's standards.
