STRONGS G1261:
διαλογισμός, -οῦ, ὁ, (διαλογίζομαι), Sept. for מַחֲשָׁבָה and Chaldean רַעְיון, in Greek writings from Plato down, the thinking of a man deliberating with himself; hence,
1. a thought, inward reasoning: Luke 2:35; Luke 5:22; Luke 6:8; Luke 9:46; Romans 14:1 [yet some bring this under 2]; the reasoning of those who think themselves to be wise, Romans 1:21; 1 Corinthians 3:20; an opinion: κριταὶ διαλογισμῶν πονηρῶν, judges with evil thoughts, i. e. who follow perverse opinions, reprehensible principles, James 2:4 [cf. Winers Grammar, 187 (176)]; purpose, design: Matthew 15:19; Mark 7:21.
2. a deliberating, questioning, about what is true: Luke 24:38; when in reference to what ought to be done, hesitation, doubting: χωρίς γογγυσμῶν καί διαλογισμῶν, Philippians 2:14 ['γογγ. is the moral, διαλ. the intellectual rebellion against God' Bp. Lightfoot]; χωρὶς ὀργῆς κ. διαλογισμοῦ, 1 Timothy 2:8; [in the last two passages others still advocate the rendering disputing; yet cf. Meyer on Philippians the passage cited].
