Definition: The word "adversatively" in English, which is derived from Greek, has its roots in ancient Greek as a play on the verb "to oppose" or "to contend against". It means to oppose with an intent or desire to cause harm. In this context, it generally refers to acting without intending to do good to someone, often causing harm or distress. It involves intentionally trying to hurt another person in some way. This phrase is most commonly used in religious contexts, particularly in Christian apologetics and spiritual warfare.
