Translations: in him, in it, in himself, in itself, to him, to it, to himself, to itself
From the root: ΕΝ, ΑΥΤΟΣ
Part of Speech: Preposition, Pronoun
Explanation: This word is a contraction of the preposition 'ἐν' (en), meaning 'in' or 'on', and the dative singular form of the pronoun 'αὐτός' (autos), meaning 'himself', 'herself', 'itself', or 'the same'. It is used to indicate location ('in him/it') or a relationship of belonging or direction ('to him/it'). The contraction 'ἠ' for 'ἐν' before 'αὐτῷ' is a common feature in Koine Greek, especially in papyri and some manuscripts, where the nu (ν) of 'ἐν' is assimilated or dropped before a vowel, and the epsilon (ε) becomes eta (η) due to a preceding rough breathing or other phonetic changes. The word 'αὐτῷ' is the dative masculine or neuter singular of 'αὐτός'.
