STRONGS NT 3648: ὁλόκληρος

ὁλόκληρος, ὁλόκληρον (ὅλος and κλῆρος, properly, all that has fallen by lot), complete in all its parts, in no part lacking or unsound, complete, entire, whole: λίθοι, untouched by a tool, Deuteronomy 27:6; Joshua 20:4 (viii. 31) 1 Macc. 4:47; of a body without blemish or defect, whether of a priest or of a victim, Philo de vici. § 12; Josephus, Antiquities 3, 12, 2 ((cf. Havercamp's Josephus, ii., p. 321)). Ethically, free from sin, faultless (R. V. entire): 1 Thessalonians 5:23; plural, connected with τέλειοι and with the addition of ἐν μηδενί λειπόμενοι, James 1:4; complete in all respects, consummate, δικαιοσύνη, Wis. 15:3; εὐσέβεια, 4 Macc. 15:17. (Plato, Polybius, Lcian, Epictetus, others; the Sept. for שָׁלֵם, Deuteronomy 27:6; תָּמִים, Leviticus 23:15; Ezekiel 15:5.) [SYNONYMS: ὁλόκληρος, τέλειος (cf. Trench, § xxii.): 'in the ὁλόκληρος no grace which ought to be in a Christian man is deficient; in the τέλειος no grace is merely in its weak imperfect beginnings, but all have reached a certain ripeness and maturity.']
