ἀναστρέφω

Acts 5:22 ἀναστρέψαντες having returned

But on arriving at the jail, the officers did not find them there. So they returned with the report:

Acts 15:16 ἀναστρέψω I will return

‘After this I will return and rebuild the fallen tent of David. Its ruins I will rebuild, and I will restore it,

Here: 'I will turn back.' The speaker is God ('says the Lord', v.17). After judgment he turns back toward his people to act for them, as in Jeremiah 12:15 and Zechariah 1:16. Paired with the next verb, it can also carry the Hebrew idea of 'doing again'.

2 Corinthians 1:12 ἀνεστράφημεν we have conducted ourselves

For this is our boast: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially in relation to you, in the holiness and sincerity that are from God—not in worldly wisdom, but in the grace of God.

Here: Literally "turned ourselves about", that is, lived, behaved, carried ourselves among people. The aorist tense sums up his whole record as one completed whole.

Ephesians 2:3 ἀνεστράφημέν lived

All of us also lived among them at one time, fulfilling the cravings of our flesh and indulging its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature children of wrath.

Here: "We conducted our lives" or "we went about life". It means a whole manner of living, not a single act. The past tense sums up that former life as one finished whole.

1 Timothy 3:15 ἀναστρέφεσθαι, to conduct oneself,

in case I am delayed, so that you will know how each one must conduct himself in God’s household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.

Here: 'To conduct oneself', to live and move about in a certain way. It covers a whole way of life and its relationships, not just manners at a meeting.

Hebrews 10:33 ἀναστρεφομένων passing through [them]

Sometimes you were publicly exposed to ridicule and persecution; at other times you were partners with those who were so treated.

Here: In this middle form it means 'to live, to go through life' in a certain condition. So 'those who were living this way', meaning those whose daily lives were marked by that abuse. Most translations smooth it to 'those so treated'.

Hebrews 13:18 ἀναστρέφεσθαι. to conduct ourselves.

Pray for us; we are convinced that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way.

Here: "To conduct oneself, to live." It refers to a whole pattern of behavior among others, the same idea as ἀναστροφή, "way of life," in 13:7.

1 Peter 1:17 ἀναστράφητε· do conduct yourselves;

Since you call on a Father who judges each one’s work impartially, conduct yourselves in reverent fear during your stay as foreigners.

Here: An aorist (simple past-form) command, treating the whole stretch of time as one thing: 'live out the whole of it this way.' The verb shares a root with ἀναστροφή, 'way of life', which is one of the letter's keywords (1:15, 1:18, 2:12, 3:1–2, 3:16).

2 Peter 2:18 ἀναστρεφομένους, living,

With lofty but empty words, they appeal to the sensual passions of the flesh and entice those who are just escaping from others who live in error.

Here: 'Conducting themselves', a present participle describing their settled way of life. Like the Hebrew idiom of 'walking', it refers to a whole lifestyle, not to a single act.
