What is Conversation?
CONVERSA'TION
is never used in the A.V. in its ordinary sense, but always denotes "course of life," "conduct." Phil 3:20 reads "our conversation is in heaven," but the Greek is properly translated by "citizenship." What is now called "conversation " is expressed in the A.V. by "communication." 2 Kgs 9:11; Matt 5:37; Eph 4:29 etc.
