1506 eilikrinḗs (from heilē, "shining of the sun" and 2929 /krystallízō, "to judge") – properly, rightly judged because seen in full light; (figuratively) judged in the rays of God's light, i.e. with divine clarity (spiritual vision) which results in real insight (discernment).

1506 /eilikrinḗs ("sincere because transparent") describes something proven because well-examined (totally scrutinized) – therefore, certified as sincere (inwardly pure). 1506 (eilikrinḗs) naturally refers to something completely clear, free from hypocrisy (deceit, wickedness) which stands in the full light of God's approval. This term is used twice in the NT (Phil 1:10; 2 Pet 3:1).
