It is frequently employed to link two related ideas or elements, emphasizing their connection or equivalence. In some contexts, "τε" can also imply a sense of continuation or addition, similar to "also."<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek literature, "τε" was a common conjunction used by writers to create a smooth flow of ideas and to emphasize the relationship between concepts. Its usage in the New Testament reflects the influence of Hellenistic Greek on the language of the early Christian texts. The use of "τε" in the Bible often serves to highlight the unity and coherence of theological ideas, reflecting the interconnectedness of God's plan and the teachings of Jesus Christ.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>5037</b> <i>té</i> (a conjunction) – "<i>and both</i>" ("<i>both and</i>"). <a href="/greek/5037.htm">5037</a> <i>/té</i> ("and both") occurs 204 times in the NT and unfortunately is often <i>not translated</i>.</p><p class="discovery">[When translated, <a href="/greek/5037.htm">5037</a> (<i>té</i>) is usually rendered "<i>and</i>," "<i>both and</i>," or "<i>and both</i>."]</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. enclitic particle<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>and (denotes addition or connection)<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>alike (1), along (1), also (7), both (37), even (1), only (1), only* (1), or (2), well (2), whether (1).<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">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 5037: τέ</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">τέ</span></span> (as <span class="greek2">δέ</span> comes from <span class="greek2">δή</span>, <span class="greek2">μέν</span> from <span class="greek2">μήν</span>, so <span class="greek2">τέ</span> from the adverb <span class="greek2">τῇ</span>, properly, <span class="accented">as</span>; (others ally it with <span class="greek2">καί</span>, cf. <span class="abbreviation">Curtius</span>, §§ 27, 647; <span class="abbreviation">Vanicek</span>, p. 95; <span class="abbreviation">Fick</span> Part i., 32; Donaldson, New Crat. § 195)), a copulative enclitic particle (on the use of which cf.
