It often sets the stage for teachings, exhortations, or warnings, emphasizing the potential for any individual to be involved in the situation described. It underscores the inclusivity of the message, applying to anyone who meets the condition.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, conditional statements were a common rhetorical device used in teaching and philosophical discourse. The use of "εἴ τις" in the New Testament reflects this tradition, serving as a tool for Jesus and the apostles to communicate moral and spiritual truths. It highlights the personal responsibility of each believer to respond to God's call and live according to His will.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>see <a href="/greek/1487.htm">ei</a> and <a href="/greek/5100.htm">tis</a>. <p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>he that, if a man, whether any, whosoever. <p>From <a href="/greek/1487.htm">ei</a> and <a href="/greek/5100.htm">tis</a>; if any -- he that, if a(-ny) man('s thing, from any, ought), whether any, whosoever. <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/1487.htm">ei</a> <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/5100.htm">tis</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>ει είτι είτις<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><a href="/greek/eisporeuontai_1531.htm">εἰσπορεύονται — 2 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/eisdramousa_1532.htm">εἰσδραμοῦσα — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/eise_nenkamen_1533.htm">εἰσηνέγκαμεν — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/eisenenke_s_1533.htm">εἰσενέγκῃς — 2 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/eisenenkein_1533.htm">εἰσενεγκεῖν — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/eisenenko_sin_1533.htm">εἰσενέγκωσιν — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/eisphereis_1533.htm">εἰσφέρεις — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/eispheretai_1533.htm">εἰσφέρεται — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/eisphero_sin_1533.htm">εἰσφέρωσιν — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/eita_1534.htm">εἶτα — 15 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ek_1537.htm">ἐκ — 685 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ex_1537.htm">ἐξ — 236 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ekaste__1538.htm">ἑκάστη — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ekaste_n_1538.htm">ἑκάστην — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ekasto__1538.htm">ἑκάστῳ — 19 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ekastoi_1538.htm">ἕκαστοι — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ekaston_1538.htm">ἕκαστον — 13 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ekastos_1538.htm">ἕκαστος — 40 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ekastou_1538.htm">ἑκάστου — 7 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/ekastote_1539.htm">ἑκάστοτε — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/greek/1535b.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="1535b"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="1535b" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/greek/1537.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="1537"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="1537" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
