ἐπανίστημι

The Greek word ἐπανίστημι (epanistēmi) occurs two times in the Bible. According to its definition, epanistēmi means "to rebel against." This suggests that the word is used in contexts where there is some form of resistance or opposition, likely against established authority or institutions. Given its definition, we can infer that epanistēmi has a somewhat negative connotation, implying a rejection of what is considered established or lawful. The fact that it occurs only twice in the Bible may indicate that the concept of rebellion against authority is not a central theme in the text. However, the scarcity of occurrences also suggests that these instances may hold significant weight or importance.
