Policy [1]

pol´i - si  : Literally "method of government," and so "ability to manage affairs." In a bad sense, "cunning," "craft," in Daniel 8:25 ( שׂכל , sekhel , "understanding"); in a good sense in 1 Macc 8:4 ( βουλή , boulḗ , "counsel"); also in the King James Version 2 Macc 13:18; 14:29, 31 ( μέθοδος , méthodos , στρατήγημα , stratḗgēma , στρατηγέω , stratēgéō ), where the Revised Version has "stratagem." Policies occurs in Judith 11:8 the King James Version for πανούργημα , panoúrgēma , lit. "readiness for anything," here in a good sense; Revised Version "subtil devices."
