G4386–πρότερον–proteron

Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief:

πρότερον proteron “formerly”

Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter into it, and they to whom it was first preached entered not because of unbelief:

πρότερον proteron “formerly”

Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.

πρότερον proteron “first”

But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;

πρότερον proteron “former”

As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:

πρότερον proteron “former”
