From the root: ΑΠΟΚΛΙΣΗ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word refers to a turning away, a deviation, or a declination from a straight path or a norm. It implies a departure or a variation. It is a compound word formed from 'από' (from, away from) and 'κλίσις' (a bending, inclination). While 'κλίσις' is found in ancient Greek, 'απόκλισις' (the more common ancient form) or 'απόκλιση' (the modern form) is less common in classical Koine Greek texts like the New Testament, but its meaning can be inferred from its components.
