διόπερ

Strong’s: G1355

Associated OET lemmas: διόπερ

Notes: διόπερ may be regarded as somewhat more emphatic than διό.; Since the result is stated as an inference based upon what has preceded, one may translate this expression of result as ‘for this reason’ or ‘for this very reason.’ What precedes constitutes the reason, but the result may be effectively introduced by referring back to the reason.

Form 1

Sense 1: therefore, for this reason, for this very reason, so then

Semantic entry: 89.47
