Matthew 6:1 γε, indeed

“Be careful not to perform your righteous acts before men to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

Here: A small particle that adds stress: 'otherwise, make no mistake'. It sharpens the warning.

Matthew 7:20 γε surely

So then, by their fruit you will recognize them.

Here: A small particle that adds emphasis to the word before it. Together, *ara ge* means something like "so then, you see" or "so it is, then": a firm, settled conclusion.

Matthew 9:17 γε, indeed

Neither do men pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”

Here: A small word that adds emphasis: 'otherwise, you can be sure…'. It makes the warning firmer.

Matthew 17:26 γε surely

“From others,” Peter answered. “Then the sons are exempt,” Jesus said to him.

Luke 5:36 γε, indeed

He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.

Luke 5:37 γε, indeed

And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.

Luke 10:6 γε, yet

If a man of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; if not, it will return to you.

Luke 11:8 γε yet

I tell you, even though he will not get up to provide for him because of his friendship, yet because of the man’s persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs.

Here: A small word of emphasis: 'yet because of this, at any rate'. It throws the weight onto the second reason.

Luke 13:9 γε, yet

If it bears fruit next year, fine. But if not, you can cut it down.’”

Luke 14:32 γε, indeed

And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace.

Luke 18:5 γε yet

yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice. Otherwise, she will wear me out with her perpetual requests.’”

Luke 24:21 γε indeed

But we were hoping He was the One who would redeem Israel. And besides all this, it is the third day since these things took place.

Acts 2:18 γε even

Even on My menservants and maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.

Acts 8:30 γε also

So Philip ran up and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet. “Do you understand what you are reading?” Philip asked.

Acts 17:27 γε γε indeed

God intended that they would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us.

Here: A small particle that adds emphasis. Together the three words εἰ ἄρα γε make an idiom of polished Greek: "if perhaps, at least". The outcome is left open.

Romans 8:32 γε indeed

He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, freely give us all things?

Here: A small emphatic particle: "the very one who", "he who actually…". It sharpens the claim that follows; this is the only place in the New Testament where it is joined to this pronoun.

1 Corinthians 4:8 γε really

Already you have all you want. Already you have become rich. Without us, you have become kings. How I wish you really were kings, so that we might be kings with you!

Here: An intensifier: 'if only you really had.' It sharpens the contrast between their claimed reign and a real one.

1 Corinthians 6:3 γε even

Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life!

1 Corinthians 9:2 γε at least

Even if I am not an apostle to others, surely I am to you. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

2 Corinthians 5:3 γε even

because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked.

Here: A small particle that adds emphasis. With ei it forms the set phrase ei ge, 'if in fact', which Paul uses for something he assumes his readers will grant (compare Galatians 3:4; Colossians 1:23).

2 Corinthians 11:16 γε, indeed

I repeat: Let no one take me for a fool. But if you do, then receive me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.

Galatians 3:4 γε indeed

Have you suffered so much for nothing, if it really was for nothing?

Ephesians 3:2 γε indeed

Surely you have heard about the stewardship of God’s grace that was given to me for you,

Here: A small emphasising particle. With εἰ it forms the set phrase "if indeed" / "since surely", which usually assumes the condition is true (compare Eph 4:21; Col 1:23).

Ephesians 4:21 γε indeed

Surely you heard of Him and were taught in Him—in keeping with the truth that is in Jesus—

Here: A small particle that adds emphasis. Together εἴ γε means 'if indeed', 'since, as is the case', 'surely'. Paul is reminding them, not questioning them.

Colossians 1:23 γε indeed

if indeed you continue in your faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope of the gospel you heard, which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.

Here: A small particle that sharpens or narrows the 'if'. With εἰ it means 'if indeed' or 'provided that'. It usually signals confidence that the condition holds, but it does not cancel the condition.
