![7 The Oxford English Dictionary’s secondary definition of “rebellion” is “[o]pen or
determined defiance of or resistance to any authority, controlling power, or convention; an
instance of this.” Examples of this usage include spiritual rebellion (“The event of this
evening has reconciled me to God and humanity! I had risen in angry rebellion against
providence.” (quoting Brontë, Wuthering Heights, 87 (New York, Harper & Bros. 1858)
(1847))) and familial rebellion (“He had forgotten that he had it, but told me when he saw
it that he remembered it as the first thing that made him begin to rise against his father in a
rebellion which he recognized as righteous.” (quoting Butler, The Way of All Flesh, 178
(New York, E.P. Dutton & Co. 1917) (1903))).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:maiw2rfujepnphhrejytvuu5/bafkreiati7yieom3k2dqrggl2uq3nggb7riooxrotvyimk4unkwrtzbkri@jpeg)
