In the New Testament stasis, is rendered "insurrection" inMr 15:7the King James Version (where compare the verb "made insurrection"), but inLu 23:19,25"sedition." the Revised Version (British and American) correctly renders "insurrection" throughout; also inAc 24:5"insurrections" for the King James Version "sedition."
