The Greek word for "resist" is "ἀντίστημι" (antistēmi), which combines "ἀντί" (anti), meaning "against," and "ἵστημι" (histēmi), meaning "to stand." Therefore, it conveys the idea of standing against something or opposing it. In various contexts, it can refer to resisting temptation, challenges, or adversities. The term emphasizes active opposition rather than passive endurance.
