σύνειμι G4895
to be with, accompany someone
This verb means to go or come together with someone, hence to be in company with them. Luke 9:18 mentions Jesus praying alone while the disciples were with him—an interesting paradox of solitude and companionship. Acts 22:11 refers to Paul's companions who were with him on the Damascus road. The term emphasizes physical presence and association.
Senses
1. sense 1 — Describes being together with someone, accompanying them or being in their company during an event or period. The cross-lingual evidence (Spanish 'estaban con,' French 'être-avec') straightforwardly expresses companionship. Luke's account of Jesus praying 'alone' yet with his disciples present (9:18) captures a nuanced solitude, while Paul's reference to those who were with him during his conversion experience (Acts 22:11) emphasizes shared witness to the dramatic event. 2×
