Usage: The word ἀναστροφή is used in the New Testament to describe the conduct or lifestyle of individuals, often in a moral or ethical context. It is employed to highlight the transformation expected in the life of a believer, contrasting former ways of living with the new life in Christ. Context: The term ἀναστροφή appears in several New Testament passages, emphasizing the importance of a believer's conduct as a reflection of their faith. In Galatians 1:13, Paul refers to his former way of life in Judaism, illustrating a radical transformation after his conversion: "For you have heard of my former way of life in Judaism, how severely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it." Here, ἀναστροφή underscores the contrast between Paul's past and his new life in Christ.
