Perseus probably has this, but I haven't seen it in a discussion among NT
people. Aristotle's NICOMACHAEN ETHICS discusses MALAKIA as a moral category,
meaning something like moral weakness, the inability to be resolute (Book 7).
Of course, ARSENOKOITES has a more specific field of reference.

Peace,
Greg
