◄ 3780. ouchi ►
Berean Strong's Lexicon ouchi: not, no, indeed not Original Word: οὐχί Part of Speech: Particle, Interrogative; Particle, Negative Transliteration: ouchi Pronunciation: oo-khee' Phonetic Spelling: (oo-khee') Definition: not, no, indeed not Meaning: by no means, not at all. Word Origin: A strengthened form of the Greek negative particle οὐ (ou), which is Strong's number 3756. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "οὐχί," the concept of negation is often expressed in Hebrew by the particles לֹא (lo, Strong's 3808) and אַל (al, Strong's 408), which are used to negate verbs and statements. Usage: The Greek particle "οὐχί" (ouchi) is used to express a strong negation or denial. It often appears in rhetorical questions where the expected answer is "yes," thereby emphasizing the negative aspect of the statement. It is a more emphatic form of "οὐ" (ou), used to reinforce the denial or contradiction of a statement or assumption. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of Koine Greek, which was the common language of the Eastern Mediterranean from the time of Alexander the Great until the Byzantine Empire, "οὐχί" was used to convey a strong negation. This form of speech was common in both everyday language and in the rhetorical style of the time, which often employed questions to make a point more forcefully. In the New Testament, this particle is used to challenge assumptions, correct misunderstandings, or emphasize a truth. HELPS Word-studies 3780 ouxí (an emphatic negative adverb, intensifying 3756 /ou, "not"; see R, 1157) – properly definitely not, absolutely out of the question! 3780 (ouxi) is always emphatic, denying (dismissing) what is entirely non-factual – meaning "definitely not!" (G. Archer). ["The base, ou, is made stronger by -xi (ouxi, as in Lk 1:60). Brugmann considers ouxi an intensive particle and different from the Homeric ki (ou-ki)" (R, 1164).] NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Origin intens. of ou, Definition not, not at all NASB Translation fail (1), no (6), no indeed (1).
