G4387–πρότερος–proteros

[ergänzt: What] then if ye should behold the Son of man ascending where he was before?

πρότερον; proteron “before?”

Nicodemus saith unto them (he that came to him before, being one of them),

πρότερον, proteron “former”

The neighbors therefore, and they that saw him aforetime, that he was a beggar, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

πρότερον proteron “before”

And in this confidence I was minded to come first unto you, that ye might have a second benefit;

πρότερον proteron “previously”

but ye know that because of an infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you the first time:

πρότερον, proteron “first,”

that ye put away, as concerning your former manner of life, the old man, that waxeth corrupt after the lusts of deceit;

προτέραν proteran “former”
