Translations: and they prophesied, and they divined, and they foretold
From the root: ΚΑΙ, ΜΑΝΤΕΥΟΜΑΙ
Part of Speech: Conjunction, Verb
Explanation: This is a compound word formed from the conjunction "καί" (kai), meaning "and," and the verb "κατεμαντεύοντο" (katemanteuonto). The verb itself is derived from "μαντεύομαι" (manteuomai), meaning "to prophesy" or "to divine," with the prefix "κατα-" (kata-), which can intensify the meaning or indicate a downward or thorough action. Thus, the combined word means "and they prophesied thoroughly" or "and they divined completely." It describes an action of foretelling or predicting, often with a sense of certainty or completion.
