5426. phroneó
5426 phronéō (from
5424 /phrḗn, "the midriff or diaphragm; the parts around the heart," J. Thayer) – properly, regulate (moderate) from within, as inner-perspective (
insight) shows itself in corresponding, outward behavior.
5426 (
phronéō) essentially equates to
personal opinion fleshing itself out in action (see J. Thayer). This idea is difficult to translate into English because it combines the
visceral and
cognitive aspects of thinking.
