1 ACT 17:10 Despite the fact that ἄπειμι[a] is morphologically derived from ἀπό ‘from’ and εἶμι ‘to come’ or ‘to go,’ there are certain contexts, such as in ACT 17:10, in which there appears to be no meaning of separation or departure, but merely generalized movement. ἄπειμι[a], however, seems to be not as generalized in meaning of movement as in the case of κινέω[a], γίνομαι[e], and μεταβαίνω[a] (15.1, 2).
