ΚΑΙΚΑΘ', καικαθ'

KAIKATH', kaikath'

Sounds Like: kai-KATH

Translations: and according to, and against, and down, and throughout, and during, and each

From the root: ΚΑΙ, ΚΑΤΑ

Part of Speech: Conjunction, Preposition

Explanation: This is a compound of two separate Koine Greek words: 'ΚΑΙ' (kai) meaning 'and', 'also', or 'even', and 'ΚΑΘ'' (kath'), which is an elided form of the preposition 'ΚΑΤΑ' (kata). 'ΚΑΤΑ' can mean 'down', 'according to', 'against', 'throughout', or 'during', depending on the context and the case of the noun it governs. The elision (the apostrophe) indicates that the final vowel of 'ΚΑΤΑ' has been dropped because the next word begins with a vowel. Therefore, 'ΚΑΙΚΑΘ'' means 'and according to', 'and against', or 'and down', among other possibilities, combining the meanings of both words.

Inflection: Does not inflect (compound of two uninflected words)

Strong’s numbers: G2532 (Lookup on BibleHub), G2596 (Lookup on BibleHub)
