Strong's Lexicon pópote: Ever, at any time Original Word: πώποτε Word Origin: Derived from the combination of two Greek words: πώ (pó), an interrogative particle meaning "ever," and ποτε (pote), an indefinite particle meaning "at some time" or "once." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for πώποτε, the concept of "never" or "at no time" can be found in Hebrew expressions such as לֹא (lo) meaning "not" or "no," often used in conjunction with other words to convey a similar meaning. Usage: The adverb πώποτε is used in the New Testament to express the concept of "ever" or "at any time," often in a negative context to emphasize that something has never occurred. It is typically used to stress the absence of an event or action in the past. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the New Testament, πώποτε is used to convey the idea of something that has never happened, often in relation to divine actions or human experiences. The use of such terms reflects the Jewish and early Christian understanding of God's unique and unprecedented actions in history, as well as the novelty of the Christian message and miracles.
