Also:
ol'-so: In the Greek kai, when it is equivalent to "also" or "even," is always placed before the word or phrase which it is intended to emphasize (e.g. Ac 12:3; 1 Joh 4:21). Mt 6:14 should therefore read, "Your heavenly Father will forgive you also"; Lu 6:13, "Whom also he named apostles"; Heb 8:6, "The mediator of a better covenant also"; and 1Th 4:14, If we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also (we believe that) those who are fallen asleep in Jesus, God will bring with Him.'
1 | Strong's Number: g2532 | Greek: kai |
Also:
has three chief meanings, "and," "also," "even." When kai means "also" it precedes the word which it stresses. In English the order should be reversed. In Jhn 9:40, e.g., the RV rightly has "are we also blind?" instead of "are we blind also?" In Act 2:26 the RV has "moreover My flesh also," instead of "moreover also... "
See EVEN.
2 | Strong's Number: g2089 | Greek: eti |
Also:
"yet" or "further," is used
(a) of time,
(b) of degree, and in this sense is once translated "also," Luk 14:26, "his own life also." Here the meaning probably is "and, further, even his own life" (the force of the kai being "even"). No other particles mean "also."
See EVEN, FURTHER, LONGER, MORE, MOREOVER, STILL, THENCEFORTH, YET.
Note: The particle te means "both" or "and."
