Logismos denotes thoughts or arguments, whether examined within the conscience or torn down in conflict.

The two verses show logismos in contexts of thoughts under mutual accusation or defense and of arguments being torn down; the translation supports this broader mental or argumentative use.

Senses in use

  1. Thoughts under accusation or defense · dominant

    In Romans 2:15, the genitive plural form occurs with conscience as thoughts are described as accusing or else defending among one another; the APB renders the clause "their thoughts among one another accusing or else defending."

  2. Arguments targeted for destruction · occasional

    In 2 Corinthians 10:4, the accusative plural form stands in the clause about tearing down what the APB renders "arguments," alongside the destruction of strongholds.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB renders the relevant clauses with "thoughts" in Romans 2:15 and "arguments" in 2 Corinthians 10:4. These renderings indicate the clauses' presentation rather than fixed equivalents for the lemma.
