Metanoeō pairs meta (after, change) with noeō (think): to change the way one thinks. But it is never merely intellectual. It is the action of turning — away from sin and self, toward God.

John the Baptist and Jesus both begin their preaching with metanoeite — “repent.” Peter, on Pentecost, calls his hearers to do the same. To respond rightly to the gospel is to turn and to trust.
