Physicism

Phys′i·cism (fĭz′ĭ·sĭz'm), n. The tendency of the mind toward, or its preoccupation with, physical phenomena; materialism in philosophy and religion.

Changed for Deep Dive Bible: Greek, which our source spelled in Latin letters, set in Greek letters; entries of one spelling merged into one article; Greek words our source left out (shown as “?”), read from the 1898 printing, from the same plates (the Library of Congress’s copy), where the place could be found with certainty.
