Berean Strong's Lexicon hopote: whenever, as often as Original Word: ὁπότε Word Origin: Derived from ὅς (hos, "who, which") and πότε (pote, "when") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ὁπότε, similar temporal conjunctions in Hebrew include אֲשֶׁר (asher, "which, that") and כַּאֲשֶׁר (ka'asher, "when, as"). Usage: The Greek conjunction ὁπότε (hopote) is used to indicate a temporal relationship, often translated as "whenever" or "as often as." It is employed to express indefinite time, suggesting a repeated or habitual action. This word is used to connect clauses, indicating that the action of the main clause occurs whenever the action of the subordinate clause takes place. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the New Testament, Greek was the lingua franca of the Eastern Mediterranean, and the use of conjunctions like ὁπότε was essential for conveying complex temporal relationships in narrative and didactic texts. Understanding such conjunctions helps in grasping the nuances of the text, especially in the context of oral traditions and teachings that were common in the early Christian communities.
