G1510–εἰμί–eimi

My defense to those who examine me is this.

ἐστιν estin “is”

For if I preach the Gospel, I have nothing to boast about; for necessity is laid on me; but woe is to me, if I don't preach the Gospel.

ἔστιν estin “there is”ἐστιν estin “be”

What then is my reward? That, when I preach the Gospel, I may present the Gospel of Christ without charge, so as not to abuse my authority in the Gospel.

ἐστιν estin “is”

For though I was free from all, I brought myself under bondage to all, that I might gain the more.

ὢν ōn “being”

To the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain those who are under the law;

ὢν ōn “being”

to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ), that I might win those who are without law.

ὢν ōn “being”

Now I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

ἦσαν ēsan “were”

and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.

ἦν ēn “was”

The cup of blessing which we bless, isn't it a communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, isn't it a communion of the body of Christ?

ἐστὶν estin “it is”ἐστιν; estin “it is?”

Because we, who are many, are one bread, one body; for we all partake of the one bread.

ἐσμεν· esmen “we are;”

Consider Israel after the flesh. Don't those who eat the sacrifices have communion with the altar?

εἰσίν; eisin “are?”

What am I saying then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?

ἐστιν estin “is”ἐστιν; estin “is?”

Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?

ἐσμεν; esmen “are we?”

But if anyone says to you, "This was offered to idols," don't eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience. For "the earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness."

ἐστιν, estin “is,”

But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

ἐστιν, estin “is,”

But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonors her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved.

ἐστιν estin “it is”

For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.

ἐστιν· estin “is;”

For man is not from woman, but woman from man;

ἐστιν estin “is”

Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled?

ἐστὶν estin “is it”

Doesn't even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?

ἐστιν, estin “it is,”

But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering.

ἐστιν; estin “it is?”

When therefore you assemble yourselves together, it is not possible to eat the Lord's supper.

ἔστιν estin “it is”

When he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "Take, eat. This is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in memory of me."

ἐστιν estin “is”

In the same way he also took the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me."

ἐστὶν estin “is”

Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord's cup in a manner unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.

ἔσται estai “will be”
