What Does “Conversation” Mean in the Bible?

In the King James Bible, Conversation means conduct in modern English. It is an archaic word from the 1611 KJV that has dropped out of everyday use.

What Was Lost

The idea that your entire life was a public 'conversation' with those around you -- every action was communication. When Peter wrote about holy conversation, he meant the totality of how a believer lived in the sight of others, not just what they said.
