1789 entréphō (from 1722 /en "in," which intensifies 5142 /tréphō, "nourish") – properly, in the state (condition) of being nourished, i.e. trained by "continuous instruction in the area of skill and practical knowledge" (L & N, 1, 414, fn 45). This happens by receiving God's inworkings (gift) of faith which has lasting effects (note the prefix en, "in the state/condition of"). 1789 (entréphō) is only used in 1 Tim 4:6. See also 4102 /pístis ("the Lord's inbirthed persuasion").
