In the Eastern Orthodox Church, akribeia (Greek: ἀκρίβεια, romanized: akriveia, akribia, akrivia, lit. 'accuracy, exactness, preciseness') is the strict adherence to the letter of the law of the Church.

Akribeia is to be distinguished from economy, which is discretionary deviation from the letter of the law in order to adhere to the spirit of the law.
