ὅθεν

hóthen · Greek · Strong's G3606 · 15 occurrences

The KJV renders 16 different Hebrew and Greek words as “upon”

What it means

from which place or source or cause (adverb or conjunction)

from G3739 (ὅς) with the directive enclitic of source;

How the KJV renders it

from thence, whence, whereby, fore, upon

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
