It is translated as "us," "to us," or "for us" in English. This pronoun is often used to express actions or benefits directed towards a group that includes the speaker.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the context of the New Testament, Greek was the lingua franca of the Eastern Mediterranean, and the use of pronouns like ἡμῖν was essential for conveying relational and communal aspects of early Christian teachings. The dative case, in particular, was crucial for expressing the nuances of giving, receiving, and relational dynamics within the early church communities.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>dat. pl. of <a href="/greek/1473.htm">egó</a>, q.v.<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>our, for us, we. <p>Dative case plural of <a href="/greek/1473.htm">ego</a>; to (or for, with, by) us -- our, (for) us, we. <p>see GREEK <a href="/greek/1473.htm">ego</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>ημίεφθον ημιν ἡμῖν ημίονοι ημίονον ημίονος ημιόνου ημιόνους ημιόνων ημίσευμα ημισεύματος ημισεύσωσι emin ēmin hemin hemîn hēmin hēmîn<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/e_meras_2250.htm">ἡμέρας — 127 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_mero_n_2250.htm">ἡμερῶν — 22 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_metera_2251.htm">ἡμετέρα — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_meterais_2251.htm">ἡμετέραις — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_meteran_2251.htm">ἡμετέραν — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_meteras_2251.htm">ἡμετέρας — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_metero_n_2251.htm">ἡμετέρων — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_meteroi_2251.htm">ἡμέτεροι — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_meterois_2251.htm">ἡμετέροις — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_meteron_2251.htm">ἡμέτερον — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_misia_2255.htm">ἡμίσιά — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_misous_2255.htm">ἡμίσους — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_misu_2255.htm">ἥμισυ — 3 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_mio_rion_2256.htm">ἡμιώριον — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_nika_2259.htm">ἡνίκα — 2 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_per_2260.htm">ἤπερ — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_pion_2261.htm">ἤπιον — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_r_2262.htm">Ἤρ — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_remon_2263.htm">ἤρεμον — 1 Occ.</a><br><a href="/greek/e_ro_de__2264.htm">Ἡρῴδῃ — 3 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/2253.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="2253"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="2253" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/greek/2255.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="2255"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="2255" /></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>
