Usage

The Greek conjunction "εἴγε" (eige) is used to express a condition with an emphasis on the reality or truth of the statement that follows. It often introduces a clause that assumes the truth of what is being stated, adding a layer of certainty or emphasis. In the New Testament, it is used to affirm the condition or premise upon which a statement is based.
