Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for the Greek adverb "ἐνί," the concept of existence or presence is often conveyed in Hebrew by the verb הָיָה (hayah, Strong's Hebrew 1961), meaning "to be" or "to exist."

Usage: The Greek adverb "ἐνί" is used to denote existence or presence within a particular context. It is often translated as "there is" or "there exists" in English. This term is used to emphasize the presence or reality of something within a specific sphere or condition.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the New Testament, "ἐνί" is used to convey the presence or reality of spiritual truths or conditions. The Greek language, with its rich vocabulary, often uses specific terms to convey nuanced meanings. "ἐνί" is one such term that underscores the existence of a state or condition, often in a theological or spiritual sense. Understanding its usage helps in grasping the depth of the theological assertions made in the New Testament.

STRONGS NT 1762: ἔνι

ἔνι equivalent to ἔνι, the accent being thrown back, same as ἐν, used adverbially (Winer's Grammar, § 50, 7 N. 2) for ἐνεστι, is in, is among, has place, is present (Homer, Odyssey 21, 218; Thucydides 2, 40): Galatians 3:28 (three times); Colossians 3:11; James 1:17; with addition of ἐν ὑμῖν, 1 Corinthians 6:5 (where Rec. ἐστιν); in secular authors from Sophocles and Thucydides on very often, it can be, is possible, is lawful; (here some would place James, the passage cited). The opinion of many (e. g. Fritzsche on Mark, p. 642; Meyer on Galatians, the passage cited; cf. Ellicott ibid.) that ἔνι is a contracted form for ἐνεστι is opposed by the like use of παρά, ἀνά, which can hardly be supposed to be contracted from πάρεστι, ἀνεστι; cf. Krüger, § 9, 11, 4; Winers Grammar, 80 (77); Göttling, Lehre v., Accent etc., p. 380; (Chandler § 917f; Buttmann, 72 (64); Lob. Path. Element. ii. 315).
