Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 3843: πάντως πάντως (from πᾶς), adverb, altogether (Latinomnino), i. e. a. in any and every way, by all means: 1 Corinthians 9:22 (so from Herodotus down). b. doubtless, surely, certainly: Luke 4:23; Acts 18:21 (Rec.); ; 1 Corinthians 9:10 (Tobit 14:8; Aelian v. h. 1, 32; by Plato in answers (cf. our colloquial by all means)). with the negative οὐ, α. where οὐ is postpositive, in no wise, not at all: 1 Corinthians 16:12 (often so as far back as Homer). β. when the negative precedes, the force of the adverb is restricted: οὐ πάντως, not entirely, not altogether, 1 Corinthians 5:10; not in all things, not in all respects, Romans 3:9; (rarely equivalent to πάντως οὐ, as in Ep. ad Diogn. 9 [ET] 'God οὐ πάντως ἐφηδόμενος τοῖς ἁμαρτήμασιν ἡμῶν.' Likewise, οὐδέν πάντως in Herodotus 5, 34. But in Theognis, 305 edition, Bekker οἱ κακοί οὐ πάντως κακοί ἐκ γαστρός γεγόνασι κτλ. is best translated not wholly, not entirely. Cf. Winers Grammar, 554f (515f); Buttmann, 389f (334f) (on whose interpretation of Romans, the passage cited, although it is that now generally adopted, see Weiss in Meyer 6te Aufl.)). Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from πᾶς (pas), meaning "all" or "every." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for πάντως, similar concepts of certainty or totality can be found in Hebrew words such as כּוּל (kul, Strong's 3557) meaning "to contain" or "to sustain," and אָמֵן (amen, Strong's 543) meaning "truly" or "so be it," which convey assurance and affirmation. Usage: The term is used in the New Testament to emphasize certainty or necessity. It often appears in contexts where an action or statement is affirmed with assurance or where something is deemed necessary or inevitable. Context: • The adverb πάντως is used in the New Testament to underscore the certainty or necessity of an action or event. It appears in various contexts, often to affirm the truth or inevitability of a statement. For example, in Acts 18:21, Paul uses πάντως to express his strong intention to return to Ephesus, saying, "I will come back to you again, God willing." Here, πάντως underscores his determination and the certainty of his plans, contingent upon God's will. • In 1 Corinthians 9:22, Paul uses πάντως to describe his commitment to winning people to Christ, stating, "I have become all things to all people, so that by all possible means I might save some." The use of πάντως here highlights the comprehensive and determined nature of Paul's evangelistic efforts. • The word also appears in Romans 3:9, where Paul uses it to affirm the universal nature of sin, stating, "What then? Are we any better? Not at all! For we have already made the charge that Jews and Greeks alike are all under sin." The use of πάντως here emphasizes the certainty and universality of the human condition of sinfulness. • Overall, πάντως serves as a linguistic tool to reinforce the certainty, necessity, or totality of a statement or action within the New Testament narrative.
