Strong's Lexicon emou: of me, my Original Word: ἐμοῦ Word Origin: Genitive singular form of the first person pronoun ἐγώ (egō) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is אֲנִי (ani) or לִי (li), which also denote the first person singular pronoun, "I" or "my." Usage: The Greek pronoun ἐμοῦ (emou) is the genitive singular form of the first person pronoun, used to denote possession or association. It is often translated as "of me" or "my" in English. This form is used to express ownership, relationship, or origin, emphasizing the speaker's personal connection to the noun it modifies. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of Koine Greek, the language of the New Testament, pronouns like ἐμοῦ were essential for indicating possession and personal relationships. The use of the genitive case in Greek often conveys a deeper sense of belonging or association than in English. Understanding these nuances helps in grasping the relational dynamics present in the New Testament texts, where personal pronouns often highlight the intimate relationship between God and believers, as well as among the early Christian community.
