Vine's Expository Dictionary of NT Words

1: πεισμονή

(Strong's #3988 — Noun Feminine — peismone — pice-mon-ay' )

akin to peitho, is used in Galatians 5:8 , where the meaning is "this influence that has won you over, or that seems likely to do so;" the use of peitho, in the sense of "to obey," in ver. 7, suggests a play upon words here.
