Rootμηδέ (mēde)
Core Meaningsand not, nor, neither, not even, continued negation
Semantic Rangenor, neither, not even, and not, nor yet; used in prohibitions, parallel negatives, and emphatic denials.
Conceptual Significanceμηδέ strengthens and extends negation in biblical discourse, often linking commands or statements to form unified prohibitions or emphatic denials. It reflects the Semitic style of cumulative negation frequently found in Scripture.
Morphological NotesGr,CC — coordinating conjunction; negative connective formed from μή (negative particle) + δέ (conjunction). It links clauses or terms in continued negation.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering "and-not" preserves the compound nature of μηδέ (μή "not" + δέ "and/but"), showing it as a connective that continues or intensifies a negation. As a coordinating conjunction (Gr,CC), it does not carry tense, voice, or case, but functions to link clauses or elements in an ongoing negative sequence.
