In Colossians 2:23 , "a show of wisdom in will-worship," for ἐθελοθρησκία , ethelothrēskı́a ), a word found nowhere else but formed exactly like "will-worship": worship originating in the human will as opposed to the divine, arbitrary religious acts, worthless despite their difficulty of performance.
