Holokleros describes completeness or intactness, whether of the whole person or of people lacking nothing.

The two occurrences present a single use of completeness or intactness: in 1 Thessalonians 5:23 it qualifies spirit, soul, and body together, while in James 1:4 it describes people who lack nothing.

   In 1 Thessalonians 5:23, the nominative singular neuter form stands with “spirit and soul and body” in the prayer that they be kept blameless; the APB renders the clause “your whole spirit and soul and body.” In James 1:4, the nominative plural masculine form describes the intended result of perseverance's work, where the APB renders “perfect and whole, lacking nothing.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term with “whole” in 1 Thessalonians 5:23 and within “perfect and whole, lacking nothing” in James 1:4. These renderings confirm the clauses' emphasis on completeness rather than isolate a precise English equivalent.
