1. disobedient, rebellious — An adjective describing persons who refuse to obey or comply with divine or parental authority. All NT uses carry the same semantic weight of willful non-compliance. Multilingual translations are unanimous: Spanish 'desobediente(s),' Hindi 'avagya/anaajnaakaari' (अवज्ञ/अनाज्ञाकारी), Arabic 'aasiin/ghayr taa'iin' (عاصين/غير طائعين), Korean 'bulsunjong-haneun' (불순종하는), and Swahili 'wasiotii/mwasi' all encode the same concept of disobedience. The split between S62689 (plural) and S62691 (singular) is purely grammatical number inflection with no semantic distinction whatsoever. 6×
