νυνί — nyní

νυνί; (νῦν with iota demonstrative (Krüger, § 25, 6, 4f; Kühner, § 180, e. (Jelf, § 160, e.); Alexander Buttmann (1873) Gram. § 80, 2)), in Attic note, at this very moment (precisely now, neither before nor after; Latinnunc ipsum), and only of Time, almost always with the present, very rarely with the future (cf. Lob. ad Phryn., p. 19). Not found in the N. T. except in the writings of Paul and in a few places in Acts and the Epistle to the Hebrews; and it differs here in no respect from the simple νῦν; cf. Fritzsche, Romans, i., p. 182; (Winer's Grammar, 23);

Winers Grammar, § 63 I. 2 b.; Buttmann, 382 (328)) (opposed to ἀπό τῶν αἰώνων); with a future, Job 7:21; Bar 6:4 (Epistle Jer 3:1-25); 2Ma 10:10; τῆς πρός ὑμᾶς νυνί ἀπολογίας, Act 22:1.

2. contrary to Greek usage, in stating a conclusion (see νῦν, 2), but since the case stands thus (as it is): 1 Cor. ( R G T L marginal reading); R G (i. e. since ὁ γλώσσῃ λαλῶν without an interpretation cannot edify the church); but now (German so aber), Heb 9:26 L T Tr WH; after a conditional statement with εἰ (see νῦν, at the end), Rom 7:17; 1Co 12:18 (R G T WH marginal reading);; Heb 8:6 (here L Tr marginal reading WH text νῦν), cf.; Rec., cf.; (Buttmann, § 151, 26).
