διαλογισμός, διαλογισμοῦ, ὁ (διαλογίζομαι), the Sept. for מַחֲשָׁבָה and Chaldean רַעְיון, in Greek writings from Plato down, the thinking of a man deliberating with himself; hence,

1. a thought, inward reasoning: Luk 2:35; Luk 5:22; Luk 6:8; Luk 9:46; Rom 14:1 (yet some bring this under 2); the reasoning of those who think themselves to be wise, Rom 1:21; 1Co 3:20; an opinion: κριταί διαλογισμῶν πονηρῶν, judges with evil thoughts, i. e. who follow perverse opinions, reprehensible principles, Jas 2:4 (cf. Winers Grammar, 187 (176)); purpose, design: Mat 15:19; Mar 7:21.

2. a deliberating, questioning, about what is true: Luk 24:38; when in reference to what ought to be done, hesitation, doubting: χωρίς γογγυσμῶν καί διαλογισμῶν, Php 2:14 (`γογγυσμῶν is the moral, διαλογισμῶν the intellectual rebellion against God' Lightfoot); χωρίς ὀργῆς καί διαλογισμοῦ, 1Ti 2:8; (in the last two passages others still advocate the rendering disputing; yet cf. Meyer on Philippians the passage cited).
