The Greek word ἐπικρίνω (epikrinō) is a verb that means "to decide." Its semantic domain falls under Cognition & Perception, indicating that it is related to the process of making judgments or evaluations. Given its definition and the fact that it occurs only once in the Bible, it is likely Anthropomorphic (personified) in its usage. This might mean that the word is used to describe a human-like action or decision-making process rather than an abstract or divine one.
