Hamartema denotes an act or acts treated as wrongdoing, whether forgiven, cleansed, passed over, or committed against one’s own body.

The occurrences present the term for wrongdoing viewed as particular acts or a body of acts: acts may be forgiven or excluded from forgiveness, cleansed from the past, passed over, and, in one case, committed against the sinner’s own body.

   In 1 Corinthians 6:18, the nominative singular occurs in the contrast between every other act and the act committed sexually against one’s own body; the APB renders the clause with “sin.” Mark 3:28 and Mark 3:29 place plural and singular forms respectively in statements about forgiveness and an act for which there is no forgiveness, while 2 Peter 1:9 and Romans 3:25 use genitive plurals in clauses about cleansing from former acts and passing over acts previously committed.
