Rootἐγώ (egō)
Core MeaningsI, me, myself, first-person personal identity
Semantic Rangeme, myself, my own person (as object); can carry emphatic contrast ("me" as opposed to others) depending on context.
Conceptual SignificanceThe first-person pronoun highlights personal agency, identity, and relational focus. In sayings of Yeshua and other speakers, the emphatic accusative often intensifies personal involvement (e.g., "receive me," "hate me"), underscoring covenantal allegiance or rejection directed toward the speaker himself.
Morphological NotesGr,RP,,,1A,S = personal pronoun, first person, accusative case, singular; functioning as a direct object with emphatic form ἐμέ/ἐμὲ.
Rendering RationaleThe form ἐμὲ is the emphatic accusative singular of ἐγώ, marking the speaker as the direct object of the verb. Rendering it as "me—myself" preserves both the first-person singular identity and the emphatic force often carried by the accented form.
