Usage: The term "paradiatribé" refers to a form of discussion or argument, often implying a prolonged or contentious debate. In the context of the New Testament, it can denote a situation where individuals engage in verbal exchanges that may involve differing opinions or interpretations. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, public discourse and debate were common practices, especially in philosophical and religious contexts.
