TEMPERANCE, TEMPERATE
A. Noun.

, 1466), from
, “strength,” occurs in Acts 24:25; Gal.
5:23; 2 Pet. 1:6 (twice), in all of which it is rendered “temperance”; the
RV
marg., “self-
control” is the preferable rendering, as “temperance” is now limited to one form of self-
control; the various powers bestowed by God upon man are capable of abuse; the right
use demands the controlling power of the will under the operation of the Spirit of God; in
Acts 24:25 the word follows “righteousness,” which represents God’s claims, self-control
being man’s response thereto; in 2 Pet. 1:6, it follows “knowledge,” suggesting that what
is learned requires to be put into practice.¶
