'''B — 1: διάγνωσις (Strong'S #1233 — Noun Feminine — diagnosis — dee-ag'-no-sis )

transliterated in English, primarily denotes "a discrimination" (dia, "apart," ginosko, "to know"), hence, "a judicial decision," which is its meaning in  Acts 25:21 , Rv, "for the decision of the Emperor" (Av, "hearing").

 Acts 23:15 Acts 24:22

'''B — 2: διάκρισις (Strong'S #1253 — Noun Feminine — diakrisis — dee-ak'-ree-sis )
