|txtha=an adversative particle, derived from ἀλλά, neuter of the adjective ἄλλος, which was originally pronounced ἄλλος (cf. Klotz ad Devar. ii., p. 1 f), hence properly, other things namely, than those just mentioned. It differs from δέ, as the Latin at and sed from autem, (cf. Winer's Grammar, 441 f (411)). I. But. So related to the preceding words that it serves to introduce<br /><b class="num">1.</b> an opposition to concessions; nevertheless, notwithstanding: ἀλλ' ὁ Θεός etc.), etc.<br /><b class="num">2.</b> an objection: nay rather, yea moreover: καί added, ἀλλ' οὐδέ, but ... not even (German ja nicht einmal): Rec. οὔτε); cf. Fritzsche on Mark , p. 157.<br /><b class="num">6.</b> or forms a transition to the cardinal matter, especially before imperatives: Rec.); ἀλλ' ἵνα, i. e. ἀλλά τοῦτο γέγονεν, yet (cf. Winer's Grammar, 442 (411)): after καί εἰ, R G); R G L (εἰ καί, T Tr WH); εἰ, ἐάν, εἴπερ, L Tr marginal reading WH brackets ἀλλ'; cf. Klotz ad Devar. ii., p. 93 f; Kühner, ii., p. 827, § 535 Anm. 6.<br /><b class="num">9.</b> after a preceding μέν: T omits; Tr brackets μέν; ἀλλά γέ (Griesbach ἀλλάγε) (twice in the N. T.): yet at least, yet surely (aber freilich), L T Tr WH add καί yea and etc.), cf. Bornemann at the passage. In the more elegant Greek writers these particles are not combined without the interposition of the most emphatic word between them; cf. Bornemann, the passage cited; Klotz ad Devar. ii., pp. 15f, 24 f; Ast, Lex. Plato, i., p. 101; (Winer's Grammar, 444 (413)). ἀλλ' ἤ (arising from the blending of the two statements οὐδέν ἄλλο ἤ and οὐδέν ἄλλο, ἀλλά) save only, except: ἀλλ' ἤ omitted by G L T Tr WH is spurious); ἀλλά itself, ἀλλ' before ἤ); cf. Klotz as above ii., 31ff; Kühner, ii., p. 824 f § 535,6; Winer s Grammar, 442 (412); (Buttmann, 374 (320)). ἀλλ' οὐ but not, yet not: παρεπίκραναν; ἀλλ' οὐ) for 'But why do I ask? Did not all,' etc.; cf. Bleek at the passage (Winer's Grammar, 442 (411)). ἀλλ' οὐχί will he not rather? II. preceded by a negation: but (Latin sed, German sondern);<br /><b class="num">1.</b> οὐκ (μή) ... ἀλλά: οὐδέν); μηκέτι), etc. By a rhetorical construction οὐκ ... ἀλλά sometimes is logically equivalent to not so much ... as: οὐκ ἐμέ δέχεται, ἀλλά τόν ἀποστείλαντά με); Mark , p. 773ff; Winer s Grammar, § 55,8b.; (Buttmann, 356 (306)). οὐ μόνος ... ἀλλά καί not only ... but also: ἀλλ' ἵνα καί, καί is omitted (as in the Latin non solum ... sed), the gradation is strengthened: καί); ἀλλά πολλῷ μᾶλλον, Winer s Grammar, 498 (464); (Buttmann, 369f (317)).<br /><b class="num">2.</b> The negation to which ἀλλά pertains is suppressed, but can easily be supplied upon reflection (Winer's Grammar, 442 (412)): ἀλλά supply 'you will say you did not go out into the wilderness for this purpose'); ἀλλά, repeated six times by anaphora, supply οὐ μόνον with the accusative of the preceding word). It is used in answers to questions having the force of a negation (Winer's Grammar, 442 (412)): ἀλλά ἵνα (or ἀλλ' ἵνα, cf. Winer s Grammar, 40; Buttmann, 10) elliptical after a negation (Winer's Grammar, 316f (297); 620 (576); Fritzsche on Matthew , p. 840f): ἀλλά ἦλθεν, ἵνα); ἀλλά τυφλός ἐγένετο (or ἐγεννήθη), ἵνα); ἀλλά τοιοῦτο ἐγένετο, ἵνα). (The best manuscripts seem to elide the final a before nouns, but not before verbs Scrivener, Plain Introduction, etc., p. 14; but see Dr. Gregory's full exhibition of the facts in Tdf Proleg., p. 93f, from which it appears that "elision is commonly or almost always omitted before (alpha) ἆ, almost always before (upsilon) u, often before (epsilon) e and (eta) ee, rarely before (omikron) o and (omega) oo, never before (iota) i; and it should be noticed that this coincides with the fact that the familiar words ἐν, ἵνα, ὅτι, οὐ, ὡς, prefer the form ἀλλ'; see also WH s Appendix, p. 146. Cf. Winer s Grammar, § 5,1a.; Buttmann, p. 10.) | |||
