Origin:
The term "proselyte" was first used in the Greek translation of the Old Testament (known as the Septuagint) to refer to non-Jewish people who had converted to Judaism. It was later used in the New Testament to refer to Gentile (non-Jewish) converts to Christianity.
In both cases, the term implied a significant change in religious affiliation and often involved a commitment to follow strict religious laws and practices.
