         Comments: There may be certain problems involved in translating ὀνομάζω in {S:04900500300018}, for the text does not mean that one should never use a term such as {L:πλεονεξία} ‘greed’ ({D:25.22}). The meaning is simply that there should never be a reason for having to speak about greed, since the people should not themselves be guilty of such behavior.

         DefinitionShort: (a figurative extension of meaning of {L:ὀνομάζω}[b] ‘to call a name,’ {D:33.133}) to be caused to be made known

         Glosses: to be known

         Comments: It would be possible, however, to interpret ὀνομάζομαι in {S:04501502000014} in a more literal sense, so that one could translate the final part of the verse as ‘where the name of Christ had not been used’ or ‘where no one had spoken the name of Christ.’
