'Even' in the Bible

For [even the whole] creation [all nature] waits eagerly for the children of God to be revealed.

And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

And we know that to them that love God all things work together for good, even to them that are called according to his purpose.

He did not even spare His own Sonbut offered Him up for us all;how will He not also with Him grant us everything?

Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

Even as it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac;

even before they were born or had done anything good or bad (so that God's purpose in election would stand, not by works but by his calling) --

Even as it is written, Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.

For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.

Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?

And Isaiah cries out concerning Israel, "[Even] if the number of the sons of Israel is like the sand of the sea, the remnant will be saved,

And according as Esaias said before, Unless the Lord of hosts had left us a seed, we had been as Sodom, and made like even as Gomorrha.

What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.

but Israel even though pursuing a law of righteousness did not attain it.

even as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence: And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame.

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

and how shall they preach, except they be sent? even as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that bring glad tidings of good things!

And Isaiah is even bold enough to say, "I was found by those who did not seek me; I became well known to those who did not ask for me."

Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

And so Scripture says, "God has given them a spirit of drowsiness--eyes to see nothing with and ears to hear nothing with--even until now."

And even they, if they do not remain in unbelief, will be grafted in, because God has the power to graft them in again.

and so all Israel shall be saved: even as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer; He shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.

And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you].

For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members have not the same office:

In the same way, even though we are many people, we are one body in the Messiah and individual parts connected to each other.

For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.

That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Wherefore receive ye one another, even as Christ also received you, to the glory of God.

And again Isaiah says, "The root of Jesse will come, even the one who rises to rule over the Gentiles; in him the Gentiles will put their hope."

But as to you, brethren, I am convinced-- yes, I Paul am convinced--that, even apart from my teaching, you are already full of goodness of heart, and enriched with complete Christian knowledge, and are also competent to instruct one another.

in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Spirit; so that from Jerusalem, and round about even unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ;

in order that you may welcome her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints, and help her in whatever task she may have need from you, for she herself also has been a helper of many, even me myself.

to God, the only wise, through Jesus Christ, even to Him be the glory through all the Ages! Amen.

unto the church of God which is at Corinth, even them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be'saints, with all that call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, their Lord and ours:

Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

God has selected [for His purpose] the insignificant (base) things of the world, and the things that are despised and treated with contempt, [even] the things that are nothing, so that He might reduce to nothing the things that are,

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

Now God has revealed these things to us by the Spirit, for the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.

For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.

with milk I fed you, and not with meat, for ye were not yet able, but not even yet are ye now able,

Because you are still in the flesh: for when there is envy and division among you, are you not still walking after the way of the flesh, even as natural men?

Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

It is of little importance to me that I should be evaluated by you or by any human court. In fact, I don’t even evaluate myself.

For even now you are full, even now you have wealth, you have been made kings without us: truly, I would be glad if you were kings, so that we might be kings with you.

Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace;

when we are slandered, we respond graciously. Even now, we are like the world’s garbage, like the dirt everyone scrapes off their sandals.

For even if you had ten thousand teachers in Christ, you have not more than one father: for in Christ Jesus I have given birth to you through the good news.

For this cause have I sent unto you Timothy, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who shall put you in remembrance of my ways which are in Christ, even as I teach everywhere in every church.

It is widely reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and the kind of sexual immorality that is not even tolerated among the Gentiles—a man is living with his father’s wife.

Even though I am away from you physically, I am with you in spirit. I have already passed judgment on the man who did this, as though I were present with you.

Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

But now I am writing you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a believer who is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or verbally abusive, a drunkard or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person.

unto your shame I speak: so there is not among you one wise man, not even one, who shall be able to discern in the midst of his brethren!

On the contrary, it is you who wrong and defraud, and you do this even to your brothers and sisters.

For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.

I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.

Wast thou called being a bondservant? Care not for it: nay, even if thou canst become free, use it rather.

I think then that because of the impending distress [that is, the pressure of the current trouble], it is good for a man to remain as he is.

But I say this, believers: the time has been shortened, so that from now on even those who have wives should be as though they did not;

So then the man who marries the virgin acts appropriately, but the man who refrains from marriage does even better.

For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth—as there are many “gods” and many “lords”—

But all believers do not recognize these facts. Some, from force of habit in relation to the idol, even now eat idol sacrifices as such, and their consciences, being but weak, are polluted.

If I am not [considered] an apostle to others, at least I am one to you; for you are the seal and the certificate and the living evidence of my apostleship in the Lord [confirming and authenticating it].

Do we not have a right to take along a believing wife, even as the rest of the apostles and the brothers of the Lord and Cephas?

If others have this right to receive benefits from you, don’t we even more?However, we have not made use of this right; instead we endure everything so that we will not hinder the gospel of Christ.

Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

For since I am free from all I can make myself a slave to all, in order to gain even more people.

Know ye not that they that run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? Even so run; that ye may attain.

Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.

Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

Now I praise you that ye remember me in all things, and hold fast the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.

But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.

For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.

Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.

but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he will.

For, even as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ,

But now hath God set the members each one of them in the body, even as it pleased him.

No, it is quite otherwise. Even those parts of the body which are apparently somewhat feeble are yet indispensable;

But desire the greater gifts. And I will show you an even better way.

If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love [for others growing out of God’s love for me], then I have become only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal [just an annoying distraction].

Even if I give away everything that I have and sacrifice myself, but have no love, I gain nothing.

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

I wish all of you spoke in other languages, but even more that you prophesied. The person who prophesies is greater than the person who speaks in languages, unless he interprets so that the church may be built up.

And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?

Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.

It is written in the law:I will speak to these peopleby people of other languagesand by the lips of foreigners,and even then, they will not listen to Me,says the Lord.

For I am the least of the apostles and not even fit to be called an apostle because I persecuted God's church.

But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me did not prove vain; but I labored even more than all of them, yet not I, but the grace of God with me.

But if there is no resurrection of the dead, not even Christ has been raised;

Moreover we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we testified against God that He raised Christ, whom He did not raise, if in fact the dead are not raised.

For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised;

Yes, even those who have died believing in the Messiah are lost.

For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

but God giveth it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.

Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
