Name of God’s Son

ἘΒΑΝΕΙ, ἐβανει

EBANEI, ebanei

Sounds Like: eh-BAH-nei

Translations: he goes, he walks, he steps, he comes, he departs

From the root: ΒΑΙΝΩ

Part of Speech: Verb

Explanation: This word is likely a misspelling or an unusual inflection of the Koine Greek verb 'βαίνω' (bainō), which means 'to go', 'to walk', 'to step', 'to come', or 'to depart'. It typically refers to the act of moving from one place to another on foot. The form 'ἐβάνει' (ebanei) would be a third-person singular imperfect active indicative, meaning 'he was going' or 'he used to go'. However, the provided form 'ἘΒΑΝΕΙ' with the rough breathing mark on the initial epsilon and the -ει ending is not a standard Koine Greek conjugation for 'βαίνω'. It might be a scribal error or a very rare dialectal form.

Inflection: Third Person, Singular, Imperfect, Active, Indicative (likely a misspelling or variant)

Strong’s number: G0939 (Lookup on BibleHub)

Unknown: Yes
