Etymology
1. 1545, "rejected as worthless," from L.L. reprobatus, pp. of reprobare "disapprove, reject, condemn," from L. re- "opposite of, reversal of previous condition" + probare "prove to be worthy" (see probate). The noun is recorded from 1545, "one rejected by God." Sense of "abandoned or unprincipled person" is from 1592. Earliest form of the word in Eng. was a verb, meaning "to disapprove" (1432).
2. First attested in c. 1451, in Middle English; inherited from Middle English reprobaten, from reprobat(e) (“condemned, damned”, also used as the past participle of reprobaten) + -en (verb-forming suffix), borrowed from Latin reprobātus, see -ate (verb-forming suffix) and Etymology 1 for more. Doublet of reprove.
