STRONGS G573:
ἁπλοῦς,
-ῆ,
-οῦν, (contracted from
-όος,
-όη,
-όον), [from Aeschylus down],
simple, single (in which there is nothing complicated or confused; without folds [cf. Trench, § lvi.]);
whole; of the eye,
good, fulfilling its office,
sound:
Matthew 6:22;
Luke 11:34 — [others contend that the moral sense of the word is the only sense lexically warranted; cf. Test xii. Patr. test. Isach. § 3
οὐ κατελάλησά τινος, etc.
πορευόμενος ἐν ἁπλότητι ὀφθαλμῶν, ibid. § 4
πάντα ὁρᾷ ἐν ἁπλότητι,
μὴ ἐπιδεχόμενος ὀφθαλμοῖς πονηρίας ἀπὸ τῆς πλάνης τοῦ κόσμου; yet cf. Fritzsche on
Romans 12:8).
