Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is עוֹד (H5750), which also means "still" or "yet."

Usage: The Greek adverb "ἔτι" (eti) is used to denote continuation or persistence in a state or action. It often conveys the sense of "still" or "yet," indicating that something remains unchanged or ongoing. It can also imply "even" or "more," suggesting an additional degree or extent.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the New Testament, "ἔτι" is used to emphasize the persistence of a condition or action, often in the face of expected change. This reflects the Greek language's ability to convey nuanced temporal and qualitative aspects of actions and states. The use of "ἔτι" in the New Testament often highlights the enduring nature of God's promises, the ongoing work of Christ, or the persistent state of human conditions.

STRONGS NT 2089: ἔτι

ἔτι, adverb, as yet, yet, still;

1. of time;

a. of a thing which went on formerly, whereas now a different state of things exists or has begun to exist: added to a participle, Matthew 27:63; Luke 24:6, 44; Acts 9:1; Acts 18:18; 2 Thessalonians 2:5; with the gen absolute: ἔτι (δέ) αὐτοῦ λαλοῦντος, Matthew 12:46; Matthew 17:5; Matthew 26:47; Mark 14:43; Luke 8:49; Luke 22:47; add, Luke 9:42; Luke 24:41; John 20:1; Acts 10:44; Romans 5:8; Hebrews 9:8; with a finite verb, Hebrews 7:10; transposed so as to stand at the beginning of a sentence: ἔτι γάρ Χριστός ὄντων ἡμῶν ἀσθενῶν ... ἀπέθανε, Romans 5:6; cf. Winers Grammar, § 61, 5, p. 553 (515); (Buttmann, 389 (333)); with another notation of time, so that it may be translated even (cf. Latinjam): ἔτι ἐκ κοιλίας μητρός, Luke 1:15 (ἔτι ἐκ βρεφεος, Anthol. 9, 567, 1; ἔτι ἀπ' ἀρχῆς, Plutarch, consol. ad Apoll. 6, p. 104 d.).

c. with negatives: οὐ ... ἔτι, οὐκ ἔτι, no longer, no more, Luke 16:2; Luke 20:36; Luke 21:1, 4; Luke 22:3; ἵνα μή ἔτι lest longer, that ... no more, Revelation 20:3; οὐ μή ἔτι, Revelation 3:12; Revelation 18:21-23; οὐδείς, μηδείς, οὐδεμία, οὐδέν ἔτι, nobody, nothing more, Matthew 5:13; Hebrews 10:2 (see μηκέτι, οὐκέτι).

2. of degree and increase; with the comparative, even, yet: Philippians 1:9; Hebrews 7:15 (Winers Grammar, 240 (225)). of what remains (yet): John 4:35; John 7:33; John 12:35; John 13:33; Matthew 19:20; Mark 12:6; Luke 18:22; of what is added, besides, more, further: ἔτι ἅπαξ, Hebrews 12:26f; ἔτι ἕνα δύο, Matthew 18:16; add, Matthew 26:65; Hebrews 11:32; ἔτι δέ yea moreover, and further (Latinpraetereavero), Hebrews 11:36 (Xenophon, mem. 1, 2, 1; Diodorus 1, 74; cf. Grimm on 2 Macc. 6:4); ἔτι δέ καί (but or) yea moreover also (Latinpraetereaveroetiam), Luke 14:26 R G T L marginal reading; Acts 2:26; ἔτι τέ καί and moreover too (Latininsuperqueadeo), Luke 14:26 L text Tr WH; Acts 21:28 (cf. Buttmann, § 149, 8; Winers Grammar, 578 (537) note).
