Part of Speech: Unknown
Explanation: This word appears to be an incomplete or truncated form of a Koine Greek word, likely a misspelling or a fragment. Based on the provided context, it is highly probable that it is a partial form of words like 'ἀβουλία' (lack of counsel, thoughtlessness, imprudence) or 'ἀβουλευτέω' (to act without counsel, to be ill-advised). The prefix 'ἀ-' (alpha privative) means 'not' or 'without', and the root 'βουλ-' relates to 'counsel' or 'plan'. Therefore, the intended meaning would likely be related to a lack of planning or counsel.
