'Expedient' in the Bible

nor do ye take account that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.

Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is expedient for you that I go away; for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I go, I will send him unto you.

Now Caiaphas was he that gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

All things are lawful for me; but not all things are expedient. All things are lawful for me; but I will not be brought under the power of any.

All things are lawful; but not all things are expedient. All things are lawful; but not all things edify.

And herein I give my judgment: for this is expedient for you, who were the first to make a beginning a year ago, not only to do, but also to will.

I must needs glory, though it is not expedient; but I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
