loss
hettema denotes a loss or disadvantage, whether from disputes among believers or in contrast to later fullness.
The two occurrences present hettema as a loss or disadvantage: in 1 Corinthians 6:7, the existence of judgments among the audience is itself described as such, while Romans 11:12 contrasts a loss with fulfillment and its stated outcome.

Both occurrences use the nominative singular neuter form. In 1 Corinthians 6:7 the APB renders the clause "it is altogether a loss for you" in connection with judgments among yourselves; in Romans 11:12 it renders "their loss" in contrast with "their fulfillment."
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term with "a loss for you" in 1 Corinthians 6:7 and "their loss" in Romans 11:12. These phrases indicate the clauses' presentation rather than a precise translation rule.
