[[G3640]] (oligópistos) occurs five times in the NT, each time with Jesus rebuking the problem of failing to hear His voice (cf. Jn 10:3,4,27). - "Little-faith" ([[G3640]] /oligópistos) describes someone dull to hearing the Lord's voice, or disinterested in walking intimately with Him. In contrast, the goal of life is to receive (obey) the Lord's gift of faith in each scene of life (Ro 14:23; Heb 11:6). - [[G3640]] (oligópistos) is derived from [[G3461]] /myriás ("few, small in number"), which is the opposite of G4183 /polýs ("many in number"). --- ## Blue Letter Bible - Outline - --- ## Blue Letter Bible - Strong's Definition - --- ## Blue Letter Bible - Vines - --- ## Transliteration Details - --- ## Date - Initial - 2019.12.31 - Revised - 2023.11.02 ---
