Biblical Concordance
| John 18:15 | Simon Peter was following Jesus along with another disciple. Since that disciple was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) known to the high priest, he went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest, |
| John 18:17 | The servant girl who kept watch at the door said to Peter, “You are (ei | εἶ | pres act ind 2 sg) not one of that man’s disciples, are you?” He answered, “I (eimi | εἰμί | pres act ind 1 sg) am (eimi | εἰμί | pres act ind 1 sg) not.” |
| John 18:18 | The servants and officers had made a charcoal fire, because it (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) cold, and were standing there and warming themselves, and Peter also was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) standing with them and warming himself. |
| John 18:25 | Now Simon Peter was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) still standing and warming himself, so they said to him, “You are (ei | εἶ | pres act ind 2 sg) not one of his disciples, are you?” Peter denied it and said, “I (eimi | εἰμί | pres act ind 1 sg) am (eimi | εἰμί | pres act ind 1 sg) not!” |
| John 18:26 | One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, “I saw you in the garden with him, did I not?” |
| John 18:28 | Then they took Jesus from Caiaphas to the governor’s headquarters. It was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) early, and they did not go into the governor’s headquarters so that they would not be defiled, but could eat the Passover meal. |
| John 18:30 | They replied to him, saying, “If this man were (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) not doing something wrong, we would not have handed him over to you.” |
| John 18:33 | Then Pilate entered his headquarters again, summoned Jesus and said to him, “Are (ei | εἶ | pres act ind 2 sg) you the king of the Jews?” |
| John 18:35 | Pilate answered, “I am (eimi | εἰμι | pres act ind 1 sg) not a Jew, am I? Your own people and the chief priests handed you over to me. What have you done?” |
| John 18:36 | Jesus answered, “My kingdom is (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) not of this world; if my kingdom were (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) of this world, my subjects would be fighting to prevent me from being handed over to the Jews; but as it is my kingdom is (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) not from here.” |
| John 18:37 | Therefore Pilate said to him, “So you are (ei | εἶ | pres act ind 2 sg) a king, then?” Jesus answered, “You say that I (eimi | εἰμι | pres act ind 1 sg) am (eimi | εἰμι | pres act ind 1 sg) a king! The reason for which I was born and have come into the world, is that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is (ōn | ὤν | pres act ptcp nom sg masc) of the truth listens to my voice.” |
| John 18:38 | Pilate said to him, “What is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) truth?” And having said this he went out again to the Jews and said to them, “I find no basis for an accusation against him. |
| John 18:39 | But you have (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) a custom that I should release someone for you at the Passover. So do you want me to release for you the king of the Jews?” |
| John 18:40 | They shouted back, saying, “Not that man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) a revolutionary. |
| John 19:9 | He went back into his headquarters and said to Jesus, “Where are (ei | εἶ | pres act ind 2 sg) you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer. |
| John 19:11 | Jesus said, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) given you from above. That is why the man who handed me over to you has a greater sin.” |
| John 19:12 | From that point on Pilate tried to release him, but the Jews kept shouting out, saying, “If you release this man, you (ei | εἶ | pres act ind 2 sg) are (ei | εἶ | pres act ind 2 sg) no ‘Friend of Caesar.’ Anyone who claims to be a king opposes Caesar.” |
| John 19:14 | Now it was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) the day of Preparation for the Passover, about noon. Pilate said to the Jews, “Here is your king!” |
| John 19:19 | And Pilate wrote an inscription and fastened it to the cross. It read (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg), “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” |
| John 19:20 | Many of the Jews read this inscription, for the place where Jesus was crucified was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) near the city, and it was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek. |
| John 19:21 | Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but rather, ‘This man said, I (eimi | εἰμι | pres act ind 1 sg) am (eimi | εἰμι | pres act ind 1 sg) King of the Jews.’” |
| John 19:23 | When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took his garments and separated them into four shares, one share for each soldier. They also took his tunic, which was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) seamless, woven from top to bottom as a single piece. |
| John 19:24 | So they said to one another, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see who will get (estai | ἔσται | fut mid ind 3 sg) it” — that the Scripture might be fulfilled that says, “They divided my garments among themselves, and for my clothing they cast lots.” So the soldiers did these things. |
| John 19:31 | Then, since it (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) the day of Preparation, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) a high day), the Jews asked Pilate to have the legs of the crucified men broken and their bodies taken down. |
| John 19:35 | (The man who saw this has borne witness to it so that you too may believe. His witness is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) true, and he knows that he is telling the truth.) |
| John 19:38 | After this Joseph of Arimathea, a disciple of Jesus (though a secret one due to his fear of the Jews) asked Pilate if he could remove the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission, so he came and removed the body. |
| John 19:40 | So they took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in strips of linen with the spices, in accordance with the Jewish custom for burial. |
| John 19:41 | Now in the place where he was crucified there (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) a garden, and in the garden was a new tomb in which no one had (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) ever yet been (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) laid. |
| John 19:42 | So because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and the tomb was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) nearby, they laid Jesus there. |
| John 20:1 | Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came early to the tomb, while (ousēs | οὔσης | pres act ptcp gen sg fem) it (ousēs | οὔσης | pres act ptcp gen sg fem) was (ousēs | οὔσης | pres act ptcp gen sg fem) still dark, and she saw the stone removed from the tomb. |
| John 20:7 | and the face cloth that had been (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) on Jesus’ head; it was not lying with the linen wrappings but rolled up in a place by itself. |
| John 20:14 | Having said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) was (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) Jesus. |
| John 20:15 | Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Who is it that you are looking for?” Thinking that he (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) was (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you are the one who carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him away.” |
| John 20:19 | On (ousēs | οὔσης | pres act ptcp gen sg fem) the evening of that day, the first day of the week, when the doors were locked where the disciples were (ēsan | ἦσαν | imperf act ind 3 pl) for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, “Peace be with you.” |
| John 20:24 | But Thomas (called the Twin), one of the twelve, was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) not with them when Jesus came. |
| John 20:26 | Eight days later his disciples were (ēsan | ἦσαν | imperf act ind 3 pl) in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said, “Peace be with you.” |
| John 20:30 | Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) not recorded in this book; |
| John 20:31 | but these are recorded so that you may believe that Jesus is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name. |
| John 21:2 | Gathered there together were (ēsan | ἦσαν | imperf act ind 3 pl) Simon Peter, Thomas (called the Twin), Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two more of his disciples. |
| John 21:4 | Now when morning had dawned, there stood Jesus on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) was (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) Jesus. |
| John 21:7 | Then that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) was (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) the Lord, he tucked in his outer garment (for he was (ēn | ἦν | imperf act ind 3 sg) wearing nothing underneath), and jumped into the sea. |
| John 21:8 | But the other disciples came with the boat, pulling the net full of fish, for they (ēsan | ἦσαν | imperf act ind 3 pl) were (ēsan | ἦσαν | imperf act ind 3 pl) not far from land, no more than a hundred yards. |
| John 21:11 | So Simon Peter went aboard and dragged the net ashore, full of large fish, one hundred and fifty-three of them; and although (ontōn | ὄντων | pres act ptcp gen pl masc) there (ontōn | ὄντων | pres act ptcp gen pl masc) were (ontōn | ὄντων | pres act ptcp gen pl masc) so many, the net was not torn. |
| John 21:12 | Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” Now none of the disciples ventured to ask him, “Who are (ei | εἶ | pres act ind 2 sg) you?” for they knew it (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) was (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) the Lord. |
| John 21:18 | I tell you the solemn truth, when you were (ēs | ἦς | imperf act ind 2 sg) young, you used to fasten on your clothes and go wherever you wanted, but when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will fasten on your clothes and take you where you do not want to go.” |
| John 21:20 | Peter turned and saw following them the disciple whom Jesus loved, the one who at the supper had leaned back against Jesus and said, “Master, who is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) it that will betray you?” |
| John 21:24 | This is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) the disciple who is bearing witness about these things and who wrote these things, and we know that his witness is (estin | ἐστίν | pres act ind 3 sg) true. |
| John 21:25 | Now there are (estin | ἔστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) many other things which Jesus did as well; if they were written down one after the other, I imagine that not even the world itself could contain the books that would be written. |
| Acts 1:7 | But he said to them, “It (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) is (estin | ἐστιν | pres act ind 3 sg) not for you to know the times or seasons that the Father has set by his own authority. |
| Acts 1:8 | But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be (esesthe | ἔσεσθε | fut mid ind 2 pl) my witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” |
