“want of knowledge or perception” (akin to agnoeo, “to be ignorant”), denotes “ignorance” on the part of the Jews regarding Christ, Act 3:17<\/span>; of Gentiles in regard to God, Act 17:30<\/span>; Eph 4:18<\/span> (here including the idea of willful blindness: see Rom 1:28<\/span>, not the “ignorance” which mitigates guilt); 1Pe 1:14<\/span>, of the former unregenerate condition of those who became believers (RV, “in the time of your ignorance”). <\/p>\n<\/p>\n denotes “ignorance” as directly opposed to gnosis, which signifies “knowledge” as a result of observation and experience (a, negative, ginosko, “to know;” cp.
