STRONGS G1563:
ἐκεῖ, adverb of place,
there;
a. properly:
Matthew 2:13,
15;
Matthew 5:24, and frequent. In
Luke 13:28;
ἐκεῖ is not used for
ἐν ἐκείνῳ τῷ καιρῷ followed by
ὅταν (
at that time... when etc.), but means
in that place whither ye have been banished; cf. Meyer at the passage
οἱ ἐκεῖ, namely,
ὄντες, standing there,
Matthew 26:71 [Tr marginal reading
αὐτοὶ ἐκεῖ]. It answers to a relative adverb:
οὗ τὸ πνεῦμα,
ἐκεῖ ἐλευθερία,
2 Corinthians 3:17 Rec.;
Matthew 6:21;
Matthew 18:20;
Matthew 24:28;
Mark 6:10;
Luke 12:34; Hebraistically, where a preceding adverb or relative pronoun has already attracted the verb,
ἐκεῖ is added to this verb pleonastically:
Revelation 12:6 G T Tr WH (
ὅπου ἔχει ἐκεῖ τόπον),
Revelation 12:14 (
ὅπου τρέφεται ἐκεῖ); cf.
Deuteronomy 4:5,
14,
26;
1 Macc. 14:34, and what was said, p. 86
b, 5 on the pronoun
αὐτός after a relative.
b. by a negligent use common also in the classics it stands after verbs of motion for
ἐκεῖσε,
thither: so after
ἀπέρχομαι,
Matthew 2:22;
μεταβαίνω,
Matthew 17:20;
ὑπάγω,
John 11:8;
ἔρχομαι,
John 18:3;
προπέμπομαι,
Romans 15:24; cf.
Lob. ad Phryn., pp. 43f, 128;
Hermann on Sophocles Antig. 515; Trachin. 1006;
Buttmann on Philoct. 481; Winers Grammar, § 54, 7; Buttmann, 71 (62) and 378 (324).
