ʻălal · Hebrew · Strong's H5954 · 14 occurrences

The KJV renders 5 different Hebrew and Greek words as “come in”

What it means

to enter; causatively, to introduce

(Aramaic) corresponding to H5953 (עָלַל) (in the sense of thrusting oneself in),

How the KJV renders it

bring in, come in, go in

Where that flattens a distinction

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

come in
also renders epérchomai (G1904), ephístēmi (G2186), eisporeúomai (G1531), eisérchomai (G1525)
bring in
also renders eiságō (G1521)
go in
also renders eisérchomai (G1525)

Where it appears
