Logizomai (To Impute / Reckon)

EN — Transliteration: Logízomai

Logizomai (λογίζομαι) is a technical term from the commercial and mathematical world. It means to calculate, keep accounts, enter a value in a ledger, or impute a debt/credit. Paul and Jesus use it to illustrate the accounting dissolved by grace.

📖 Réf. : Rom 4:3 | Rom 4:8 | Rom 8:18 | 1 Cor 13:5 | 2 Cor 5:19 | 2 Tim 4:16

Logizomai is the word for debt management. Grace is defined precisely by the refusal to enter faults into the financial ledger of our life.

📊 The Bookkeeping of Love

In 1 Corinthians 13:5, Paul writes that love 'keeps (logizomai) no record of wrongs', literally meaning it does not open a debt account for suffered injuries. In Romans 4, righteousness is 'credited' (logizomai) freely, as a credit granted without working counterpart.
