amomos describes Christ’s offering as free from blemish and people as standing without blame before God.

The dominant usage describes people or the assembly as standing without blame, often alongside holiness or innocence; a smaller cluster applies the adjective to Christ in sacrificial language, where the surrounding clause emphasizes the absence of blemish.

1. Without blame in holy standing · dominant

   The plural forms describe those presented before God in Colossians 1:22 and those chosen to be holy before him in Ephesians 1:4. In Ephesians 5:27 the nominative singular feminine form occurs in the presentation of the assembly, while Philippians 2:15, Jude 1:24, and Revelation 14:5 place the forms in descriptions of innocent children of God, persons standing before glory, and people in whose mouth no lie was found; in these clauses the APB renders "blameless" or "without blemish."

2. Free from blemish in sacrificial description · common

   In 1 Peter 1:19 the genitive singular masculine form occurs with Christ’s precious blood and a lamb, where the APB renders the clause "without blemish or spot." In Hebrews 9:14 the accusative singular masculine form describes Christ offering himself to God, and the APB renders the clause "offered himself without blemish."

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across these verses, the APB commonly uses "blameless" and in sacrificial or purity imagery uses "without blemish." Because the APB is a whole-verse translation, these renderings describe the clauses as a whole.
