This would accordingly provide a problem for an individual who was weak in his conscience.'}

    Comments: The term εἰδωλεῖον may be rendered as ‘the building in which an idol is placed’ or ‘a large house in which an idol is worshiped.’ Since ‘idol’ is often rendered as ‘the statue of a god,’ εἰδωλεῖον may be rendered as ‘the building in which there is a statue of a god’ or ‘a building in which a statue of a god is worshiped.’
