AI Summary
εἰμί is the ordinary Greek verb "to be." Its most basic use is to state that a person or thing exists or is real 1234, as when speaking of someone who "is" or "was" in being, or of things that are (or are not) real 13.
It is also used as a copula, joining a subject to a predicate to express identity or equivalence ("X is Y") 13, and in an explicative way, introducing what a preceding image, parable, or symbol stands for, as in the phrase "that is" 13.
A further use describes events, times, or circumstances, meaning "to happen" or "to take place" 13.
It is also used of being present somewhere, in the sense of being in a place or having arrived there 1.
An impersonal use gives "there is / there was" 13; combined with a dative, this construction expresses possession, "there is to someone" = "someone has" 13. Combined with an infinitive, the impersonal form can also mean "it is possible" 13.
Finally, εἰμί is used on its own, without a stated predicate, as a way of saying simply "I am," used for self-identification 13.
Strong's notes that, because of these varied uses, the word is rendered in a wide range of ways in English translation, such as "be," "belong," "call," "come," "consist," "have," and "remain" 2.
