Notes: This word appears to be a compound of two verbs, χράομαι (chraomai), meaning 'to use', and βοηθέω (boētheō), meaning 'to help'. The form ἘΧΡΗΤΟ is the 3rd person singular imperfect middle/passive indicative of χράομαι, meaning 'he/she/it was using' or 'he/she/it was being used'. The form ΒΟΗΘΩ is the 1st person singular present active indicative or subjunctive of βοηθέω, meaning 'I help' or 'I may help'. The combination as a single word 'ἘΧΡΗΤΟΒΟΗΘΩ' is highly unusual and not standard Koine Greek. It is very likely a scribal error, a misspelling, or a garbled text. If it were intended to convey 'he was using to help', it would typically be expressed with separate words, such as 'ἐχρῆτο βοηθῷ' (he was using a helper) or 'ἐχρῆτο εἰς τὸ βοηθεῖν' (he was using for the purpose of helping).

Inflection: Compound, likely a scribal error or misspelling combining 3rd person singular imperfect middle/passive indicative and 1st person singular present active indicative/subjunctive
