G5424 phrḗn

φρήν

frane

thinking

Looking for Hebrew H5424 netheq? It has the same number in Strong's Hebrew lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of G5424. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.

phrḗn appears twice in Scripture, both in 1 Corinthians 14:20. In the Doxa app, open that verse, keep your notes on it, and ask Doxa Engage how it connects to what God has said to you.

Definition

the midrif (as a partition of the body), i.e. (figuratively and by implication, of sympathy) the feelings (or sensitive nature; by extension (also in the plural) the mind or cognitive faculties)

In the King James Version

understanding

Derivation

probably from an obsolete φράω (to rein in or curb; compare G5420 (φράσσω));

Appears 2 times in Scripture

1 Corinthians 14:20

“Brothers, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be mature.”
