The moral significance of this word in James 1:21, its only occurrence in the NT, may be illustrated from Pelagia-Legenden p. 63.30 ἀφῆκεν ἐν τῷ ὕδατι πᾶσαν αὐτῆς τὴν ῥυπαρίαν —with reference to cleansing in Baptism. Mayor ad Jas l.c. recalls that Plutarch (Mor. p. 60 D) uses ῥυπαρία (like our ";shabbiness";) of ";avarice,"; which would suit the idea of a ";debased"; moral coinage; but see s.v. ῥυπαρός. We may add two citations from Teles (ed. Hense)—p. 33.4 δι᾽ ἀνελευθερίαν καὶ ῥυπαρίαν (of rich men not using their wealth), and p. 37.5 διὰ ῥυπαρίαν καὶ δειλίαν.
