* Note: For the adjective periergos, "busy about trifles," see BUSYBODY: it is used of magic arts in Acts 19:19 (lit., "things that are around work," and thus superfluous), i.e., the arts of those who pry into forbidden things, with the aid of evil spirits. See also 1 Timothy 5:13 , where the meaning is "inquistive," prying into other people's affairs.
