From the root: ΑΝΑΙΣΘΗΤΟΣ
Part of Speech: Adjective
Explanation: This word describes someone who is without sensation or feeling, either physically or mentally. It is a compound word formed from the negative prefix 'αν-' (an-) meaning 'not' or 'without', and 'αισθητος' (aisthētos) meaning 'perceptible' or 'sensible'. Therefore, it literally means 'not perceptible' or 'without perception'. It can refer to a lack of physical sensation, but more commonly in Koine Greek, it denotes a lack of spiritual or moral perception, indicating someone who is dull-witted, foolish, or insensitive to spiritual truths.
