Translations: hand, a hand, (with) hand, (by) hand, (into) hand, (to) hand

From the root: ΧΕΙΡ

Part of Speech: Noun

Explanation: This word refers to a hand, often used to denote power, action, or agency. It can also refer to a person's control or authority. The final apostrophe (keraia) indicates that this form is a numeral, specifically 600, but in this context, it is much more likely to be a coronis, indicating an elision, or simply a scribal mark. Given the context of ancient manuscripts lacking diacritics, it is most likely the accusative singular form of 'χείρ' (cheir), meaning 'hand'.

Inflection: Singular, Accusative, Feminine

Strong’s number: G5495 (Lookup on BibleHub)
