Perfect from the original Greek text;

“Perfect” in the Greek; #5046 is teleios, from:5056; complete (in various applications of labor, growth, mental and moral character, etc.); neuter (as noun, with NT:3588) completeness:

There are slight variances in additional scriptures but have the same understanding in the above definition of being complete. It does NOT mean to be flawless, ideal, excellent, superb, great, terrific etc.

“Perfection” is a labor of growth in mental and moral character leading to a completeness or is being complete. An eternal work in life. A part of life itself. A growth in the understanding and application of love.

Psalms 19:7  The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
