Definition

σύν (old Att. ξύν),

prep. with dative,

expressing association, fellowship and inclusion. It gradually gave way to μετά, with genitive (cf. LS, see word; Bl., §41, 3), and is therefore comparatively infrequent in NT, being rare in Mat.4, Mrk.6, Jhn.3, and elsewhere (exx. James 1:11, 2 Peter 1:18) only in Lk (Gosp. and Ac) and Paul. With, together with: of companionship and association, Luke 2:13, John 21:3, Acts 10:23, al.; εἶναι σύν τινι, Luke 7:12, Acts 4:13, Philippians 1:23, al.; of partisanship, Acts 4:13; οἱ σύν τινι, of attendants, companions or colleagues, Mark 2:26, Luke 5:9, Acts 5:17, al.; of assistance, ἡ χάρις τ. θεοῦ σὺν ἐμοί, 1 Corinthians 15:10; of two or more things together, almost = καί, Luke 23:11, Acts 3:4; 10:2; 14:5; 23:25, Ephesians 3:18; σὺν Χριστῷ ζῆν, 2 Corinthians 13:4; besides (FlJ, LXX), σὺν πᾶσι τούτοις, Luke 24:21.

In composition: with (συνχαίρω), together (συνωδίνω), altogether (συντελέω)
