[[G1487]] /ei (followed by any verb) expresses "a condition, thought of as real, or to denote assumptions" (i.e. viewed as factual. for the sake of argument) (BAGD). Accordingly, [[G1487]] (ei) should not be translated "since," but rather always "if" – since the assumption may only be portrayed as valid (true, factual). --- ## Blue Letter Bible - Outline - --- ## Blue Letter Bible - Strong's Definition - --- ## Blue Letter Bible - Vines - --- ## Transliteration Details - --- ## Date - Initial - 2020.11.10 - Revised - 2023.10.04 ---
