For example, the Hebrew word אַף (aph, Strong's H637) can sometimes convey a similar sense of "even" or "although" in certain contexts, though it is not a direct lexical equivalent. Usage: The term καίπερ is used in the New Testament to express a concession or contrast, often highlighting a situation where something is true despite opposing circumstances. Context: The Greek adverb καίπερ is a significant term used to convey contrast or concession within a sentence. It appears in contexts where the writer acknowledges a particular fact or situation that stands in contrast to the main point being made. This word is used to emphasize the strength or validity of the main clause despite the concession introduced by καίπερ.
