<p> ''''' un ''''' - ''''' bḗ ''''' - ''''' lēv´ẽr ''''' : This word follows closely the lines of "unbelief" (which see) in its relation to originals. Once only ( Acts 14:2 ) it represents the participle ἀπειθοῦντες , <i> '''''apeithoúntes''''' </i> , "disobeying (ones)." Elsewhere (nine cases) it represents ἄπιστος , <i> '''''ápistos''''' </i> , "faithless," "without faith." In six of these passages (all in 1 and 2 Corinthians) it denotes the unconverted pagan as distinguished from the convert. In the other passages ( Luke 12:46; Titus 1:15; Revelation 21:8 ) the reference is to the unbelief which comes of moral resistance to God. </p>
