Translate, "foolish," or "senseless." understanding —not merely knowing as a matter of fact ( :- ), but knowing with understanding. the will of the Lord —as to how each opportunity is to be used. The Lord's will, ultimately, is our "sanctification" ( :- ); and that "in every thing," meantime, we should "give thanks" ( 1 Thessalonians 5:18 ; compare above, Ephesians 5:10 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-18" class="com-number"
