Meaning
Unfeigned un-fand' (anupokritos, "unfeigned," "undisguised"): The Greek word occurs only in the New Testament (1Ti 1:5, 2Ti 1:5) and is designative of the moral quality of faith as "the mark of transparency and simplicity of soul-the most complete and distinct exponent of a man's character-the natural hypothesis of a pure and good heart-a readiness to believe in goodness" (Martineau, Hours of Thought, First Series, 86 ff). Compare 2Co 6:6, 1Pe 1:22, Jas 3:17.
