G1510–εἰμί–eimi

"My kingdom," replied Jesus, "does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my subjects would have resolutely fought to save me from being delivered up to the Jews. But, as a matter of fact, my kingdom has not this origin."

ἔστιν estin “is”ἦν ēn “were”ἔστιν estin “is”

"So then *you* are a king!" rejoined Pilate. "Yes," said Jesus, "you say truly that I am a king. For this purpose I was born, and for this purpose I have come into the world--to give testimony for the truth. Every one who is a friend of the truth liste

εἶ ei “are”εἰμι eimi “am”ὢν ōn “is being”

"What is truth?" said Pilate. But no sooner had he spoken the words than he went out again to the Jews and told them, "I find no crime in him.

ἐστιν estin “is”

But you have a custom that I should release one prisoner to you at the Passover. So shall I release to you the King of the Jews?"

ἔστιν estin “It is”

With a roar of voices they again cried out, saying, "Not this man, but Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber.

ἦν ēn “Was”

"What is your origin?" he asked. But Jesus gave him no answer.

εἶ ei “are”

"You would have had no power whatever over me," replied Jesus, "had it not been granted you from above. On that account he who has delivered me up to you is more guilty than you are."

ἦν ēn “it were”

Upon receiving this answer, Pilate was for releasing Him. But the Jews kept shouting, "If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar's. Every one who sets himself up as king declares himself a rebel against Caesar."

εἶ ei “you are”

It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six o'clock in the morning. Then he said to the Jews, "There is your king!"

ἦν ēn “It was”ἦν ēn “was”

And Pilate wrote a notice and had it fastened to the top of the cross. It ran thus: JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

ἦν ēn “It was”

Many of the Jews read this notice, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the notice was in three languages--Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.

ἦν ēn “was”ἦν ēn “it was”

This led the Jewish High Priests to remonstrate with Pilate. "You should not write `The King of the Jews,'" they said, "but that he claimed to be King of the Jews."

εἰμι eimi “I am”

So the soldiers, as soon as they had crucified Jesus, took His garments, including His tunic, and divided them into four parts--one part for each soldier. The tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece.

ἦν ēn “Was”

So they said to one another, "Do not let us tear it. Let us draw lots for it." This happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says, "They shared my garments among them, and drew lots for my clothing." That was just what the soldiers did.

ἔσται· estai “it will be;”

Meanwhile the Jews, because it was the day of Preparation for the Passover, and in order that the bodies might not remain on the crosses during the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was one of special solemnity), requested Pilate to have the legs of the dying

ἦν, ēn “was,”ἦν ēn “was”

This statement is the testimony of an eye-witness, and it is true. He knows that he is telling the truth--in order that you also may believe.

ἐστιν estin “is”

After this, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but for fear of the Jews a secret disciple, asked Pilate's permission to carry away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and removed the body.

ὢν ōn “being”

Taking down the body they wrapped it in linen cloths along with the spices, in accordance with the Jewish mode of preparing for burial.

ἐστὶν estin “is”

There was a garden at the place where Jesus had been crucified, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had yet been buried.

Ἦν Ēn “There was”ἦν ēn “was”

Therefore, because it was the day of Preparation for the Jewish Passover, and the tomb was close at hand, they put Jesus there.

ἦν ēn “was”

On the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from it.

οὔσης ousēs “it being”

and the towel, which had been placed over the face of Jesus, not lying with the cloths, but folded up and put by itself.

ἦν ēn “was”

While she was speaking, she turned round and saw Jesus standing there, but did not recognize Him.

ἐστιν. estin “it is.”

"Why are you weeping?" He asked; "who are you looking for?" She, supposing that He was the gardener, replied, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him and I will remove him."

ἐστιν estin “He is”

On that same first day of the week, when it was evening and, for fear of the Jews, the doors of the house where the disciples were, were locked, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said to them, "Peace be to you!"
