Below are articles from the following dictionary:
Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
A-1 Noun Strong's Number: g5272 Greek: hupokrisis

Dissimulation, Dissemble:

primarily, "a reply," came to mean "the acting of a stage-player," because such answered one another in dialogue; hence the meaning "dissembling or pretense." It is translated "dissimulation" in Gal 2:13 (see B).
See HYPOCRISY.

B-1 Verb Strong's Number: g4942 Greek: sunupokrinomai

Dissimulation, Dissemble:

sun, "with," hupokrinomai, akin to A, "to join in acting the hypocrite," in pretending to act from one motive, whereas another motive really inspires the act. So in Gal 2:13, Peter with other believing Jews, in separating from believing Gentiles at Antioch, pretended that the motive was loyalty to the Law of Moses, whereas really it was fear of the Judaizers.

C-1 Adjective Strong's Number: g505 Greek: anupokritos

Dissimulation, Dissemble:

from a, negative, n, euphonic, and an adjectival form corresponding to A, signifies "unfeigned;" it is said of love, 2Cr 6:6; 1Pe 1:22; Rom 12:9, AV, "without dissimulation," RV, "without hypocrisy;" of faith, 1Ti 1:5; 2Ti 1:5, "unfeigned;" of the wisdom that is from above, Jam 3:17, "without hypocrisy."
See HYPOCRISY.
