- הוּא hûwʼ · H1931 · he, she, it
- Greek third-person copula verb corresponding to Hebrew third-person pronoun used in nominal sentences; both serve as the primary means of expressing identity and attribution in their respective languages, with Hebrew employing pronoun + predicate where Greek uses copular verb + predicate.
- יֵשׁ yêsh · H3426 · there is, there are
- Hebrew יֵשׁ (yêsh, H3426) is the existential particle 'there is/are' while Greek ἐστί (estí, G2076) is the copulative verb 'is/are'; both express existence or predication, with יֵשׁ (yêsh, H3426) typically introducing existence statements and ἐστί (estí, G2076) serving as the standard Greek copula, making them functional translation equivalents across Hebrew-to-Greek rendering of existential and predicative constructions.
- הוּא hûwʼ · H1932 · are, it, this
- ἐστί (estí, G2076) is the Greek third-person singular present indicative form of 'to be,' directly corresponding to הוּא (hûwʼ, H1932), the Aramaic third-person pronoun used predicatively ('he/it is') in Biblical Aramaic contexts where Greek translations render the copular sense explicitly.
