How the English word “neglect” was understood when the King James Version was still the common Bible of English readers.
NEGLECT, verb transitive
[G. To let, to leave, to suffer to pass. The sense of the latter words then is to leave behind, or permit to remain; I suspect the Latin To be composed of the same prefix, as n is not radical in the latter. But of this I am not confident.]
- To omit by carelessness or design; to forbear to do, use, employ, promote or attend to; as, to neglect duty or business; to neglect to pay honest debts; to neglect our interest or policy; to neglect the means in our power.
- To omit to receive or embrace; to slight.“How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation?” Hebrews 2:3
- To slight; not to notice; to forbear to treat with attention or respect.
- To postpone. [Not in use.]
