Genesis 17:1 The Hebrew word rendered "blameless" (NKJV) or "perfect" (KJV) in Genesis 17:1 means "entire, complete, full, without blemish." The Greek word found in Matthew 5:48 translated "perfect" means "finished, complete, having reached its end," and implies being fully grown or mature. www.bibletools.org/index.cfm/fuseaction/Topical.show/RTD/cgg/ID/5021/Perfe
