Trench's NT Synonyms
• Self-Willed

self - wil ´ ( רחון , rācōn ; αὐθάδης , authádēs ): Found once in the Old Testament ( Genesis 49:6 , "In their self-will they hocked an ox") in the death song of Jacob (see HOCK ). The idea is found twice in the New Testament in the sense of "pleasing oneself": "not self-willed, not soon angry" (Titus 1:7 ); and "daring, self-willed, they tremble not to rail at dignities" (2 Peter 2:10 ). In all these texts it stands for a false pride, for obstinacy, for "a pertinacious adherence to one's will or wish, especially in opposition to the dictates of wisdom or propriety or the wishes of others."
