Strong's Lexicon epeita: then, thereafter, afterwards Original Word: ἔπειτα Part of Speech: Adverb Transliteration: epeita Pronunciation: eh-PAY-tah Phonetic Spelling: (ep'-i-tah) Definition: then, thereafter, afterwards Meaning: then, thereafter, afterwards. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek words "epi" (ἐπί, meaning "upon" or "after") and "eita" (εἶτα, meaning "then" or "next"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "epeita," the concept of sequence and order can be found in Hebrew words like "אַחַר" (achar, Strong's H310) meaning "after" or "behind." Usage: The adverb "epeita" is used in the New Testament to denote a sequence of events, indicating what follows in time or order. It is often translated as "then" or "afterwards," and it helps to establish a chronological or logical progression in a narrative or argument. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the New Testament, "epeita" is used to convey the unfolding of events, particularly in narratives and teachings. Understanding the sequence of events was crucial for the early Christian communities as they sought to comprehend the life and teachings of Jesus, the development of the early Church, and the unfolding of God's redemptive plan. The use of "epeita" reflects the Greek emphasis on logical order and clarity in communication.
