Greek Word: και

Today – kai

In the Greek: και

Pronunciation (Erasmian): kih (long vowel I sound)

Definition/approximate English equivalent: (conjunction) and, also, even, indeed, but

Example of its use:

  • Matthew 20:19 (Tischendorf): καὶ παραδώσουσιν αὐτὸν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν εἰς τὸ ἐμπαῖξαι καὶ μαστιγῶσαι καὶ σταυρῶσαι, καὶ τῇ τρίτῃ ἡμέρᾳ ἐγερθήσεται.

This is one of the most common Greek terms you will come across as you read the Koine Greek New Testament.
