Called

Context-sensitive: in 1:1 = called to apostleship; in 1:7 = called to be saints; in 8:28-30 = effectual calling to salvation. Must be distinguished from a person being ritually summoned by a bonga through an Ojha or Naeke, or from a witchcraft-accusation (daain) context, where ‘calling out’ a person carries a very different and sensitive social meaning.
