Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: A contraction of καί (kai, meaning "and") and ἐκεῖ (ekei, meaning "there").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While "κακεῖ" is a Greek term, its Hebrew equivalent in terms of function might be found in conjunctions or adverbs that link actions or locations, such as וְשָׁם (v'sham, meaning "and there"). However, there is no direct one-to-one correspondence in Strong's Hebrew Dictionary, as Greek and Hebrew languages have different structures and usage patterns.

Usage: This Greek word is used in the New Testament to indicate a continuation or addition of location, often translated as "and there" or "there also" in English. It is used to connect actions or events occurring in different places.

Context: The Greek adverb "κακεῖ" appears in the New Testament as a linguistic tool to link actions or events that occur in different locations, emphasizing the continuity or extension of a narrative. It is a compound word formed by the conjunction "καί" (and) and the adverb "ἐκεῖ" (there), which together convey the sense of "and there" or "there also."

In the Berean Standard Bible, "κακεῖ" is used in several passages to highlight the movement or presence of individuals or events across different places. For example, in Matthew 2:22, it is used to describe Joseph's journey: "But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee, and there he settled in a town called Nazareth." Here, "κακεῖ" underscores the transition from one location to another, emphasizing the narrative's geographical progression.

The use of "κακεῖ" in the New Testament reflects the itinerant nature of many biblical narratives, where the movement from one place to another is significant for the unfolding of events. It serves as a narrative device to maintain the flow of the story while indicating changes in setting.
