Convenient

VIEW:41 DATA:01-04-2020
CONVENIENT.—This Eng. word often has in AV [Note: Authorized Version.] its primary meaning of befitting, as Rom_1:28 ‘God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient’ (RV [Note: Revised Version.] ‘fitting’). So in the trans. of Agrippa’s Van Artes (1684) ‘She sang and danc’d more exquisitely than was convenient for an honest woman.’
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


kon-vēn?yent: In the Revised Version (British and American) limited to translation of καιρός, kairós, ?suitable time,? ?season,? and its compounds: ?that which is seasonable? or ?opportune? (Mar_6:21; Act_24:25). the King James Version is replaced, in Pro_30:8 the Revised Version (British and American), by ?needful? (Hebrew ḥōḳ), ?feed me with the food that is needful for me?; Jer_40:4, by ?right?; Eph_5:4, by ?befitting?; in Rom_1:28, by ?fitting,? and in 1Co_16:12, by ?opportunity.?

Convenient
used in the A.V. only in its old Latin, sense of suitable or becoming, as a rendering of יָשָׁר, yashar' (Jeremiah xl, 4, 5, “right,” as often elsewhere), חֹק, chok (Pro_30:8, an allotted “portion,” as sometimes elsewhere), καθῆκον (Rom_1:28, “fit,” as in Act_22:22), ἀνῆκον (Eph_5:4; Phm_1:8, “fit,” as in Col_3:18); but εὕκαιρος (Mar_6:21), εὐκαίρως (Mar_14:11), εὐκαιρέω (1Co_16:12), or simply καιρός (Acts' 24:25), refer to opportuneness of time or season. Similarly in the Apocrypha (καθήκω, Sir_10:23; 1Ma_12:11; 2Ma_4:19; 2Ma_11:36), ἐπιτήδειος, (1Ma_4:46; 1Ma_14:34) ἐπίκαιρος (2Ma_4:32; 2Ma_14:22), simply καιρός (Sir_39:17), or mere construction (2Ma_10:18).
