oude links a further item or action to a preceding negation, extending what is excluded or denied.

Across the supplied verses, oude functions as a negative connective that adds another item, source, action, or possibility to what has already been denied or excluded; it can join parallel phrases, as in Galatians 1:1, or extend a negative statement to a further clause, as in Acts 2:27.

Senses in use

  1. Negative connector extending an exclusion · dominant

    The supplied forms occur as Conjunction or Adverb while extending a negative statement to an additional element. In Galatians 1:1 the APB renders two excluded human sources, “not from humans nor through a human”; in Acts 2:27 it joins the further denial that the Holy One will see corruption; and in 1 Peter 2:22 the APB renders a second negative assertion, “neither was deceit found in his mouth.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB commonly presents the connective with “nor,” “neither,” or “not even,” while some clauses express the added negation without a separate matching English token. These renderings show the verse-level negative linkage rather than a fixed English equivalent.
