STRONGS G3676:
ὅμως (
ὁμός), from
Homer down,
yet; it occurs twice in the N. T. out of its usual position (cf.
Winers Grammar, § 61, 5f.;
Buttmann, § 144, 23), viz. in
1 Corinthians 14:7, where resolve thus:
τά ἄψυχα,
καίπερ φωνήν διδόντα,
ὅμως,
ἐάν διαστολήν...
πῶς κτλ. instruments without life,
although giving forth a sound, yet, unless they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known etc., Fritzsche, Conject. spec. i., p. 52; cf. Meyer at the passage; (
Winer's Grammar, 344 (323)); again,
ὅμως ἀνθρώπου...
οὐδείς ἀθετεῖ for
ἀνθρώπου κεκυρωμένην διαθήκην,
καίπερ ἀνθρώπου οὖσαν,
ὅμως οὐδείς κτλ., a man's established covenant, though it be but a man's, yet no one, etc.
Galatians 3:15;
ὅμως μέντοι,
but yet, nevertheless, (cf.
Winer's Grammar, 444 (413)),
John 12:42.
