From the root: ΕΠΙ
Part of Speech: Preposition, Adverb
Explanation: This word is most likely a misspelling or variant of the Koine Greek word 'ΕΠΙ' (epi). As a preposition, 'ΕΠΙ' is highly versatile and can take different cases (genitive, dative, accusative) to convey various meanings. With the genitive, it often means 'upon,' 'on,' 'over,' or 'at' (e.g., 'on the table'). With the dative, it can mean 'on,' 'at,' 'by,' 'for,' or 'in addition to' (e.g., 'at the door'). With the accusative, it typically means 'to,' 'against,' 'upon,' or 'over' (e.g., 'to go upon the mountain'). It can also function as an adverb meaning 'besides' or 'in addition'. The provided context 'ΕΡΠΙ ΡΑΒΑΘ'' being corrected to 'ΕΠΙ ΡΑΒΒΑΘ'' strongly suggests this interpretation.
Inflection: Does not inflect (as a preposition/adverb), but governs different cases depending on its meaning and context (Genitive, Dative, Accusative).
