(Ephesians V, 20-26)
Ephesians V, 20 — ‘ἐν ὀνόματι’ - ‘en onomati’ - ‘in the name; by the name’. Rather the former than the latter, since it is not clear how to do the latter.

Ephesians V, 21 — ‘ἐν φόβῳ Χριστοῦ’ - ‘en phobo CHristou’ - ‘in the fear of Christ’. The ‘fear of Christ’ is the same as the ‘fear of God’, about which more is available here:

Ephesians V, 24 — ‘ἐν παντί’ - ‘en panti’ - ‘in everything’.

Ephesians V, 26 — ‘ἐν ῥήματι’ - ‘en remati’ - ‘in the word; in the matter; by the word; by the matter’. A word and in general an expression with many meanings, but it is definitely not just about words, but about the essence of the matter.

(Luke XI, 1-10)
Luke XI, 1 — ‘ἐν τῷ εἶναι’ - ‘en to einai’ - ‘in being’. That is, ‘when; during’. ‘ἐν τόπῳ’ - ‘en topo’ - ‘in a place’.

Luke XI, 2 — the words ‘ours Who is in heaven’ are not found in many manuscripts.

Luke XI, 4 — ‘εἰς πειρασμόν’ - ‘eis peirasmon’ - ‘into temptation; into testing’. In the ancient Greek language, ‘temptation’ and ‘trial’ are the same word.

Luke XI, 5 — ‘ἐξ ὑμῶν’ - ‘ex ymon’ - ‘of you’. The preposition ‘ek’ in its form before the next vowel indicates where the choice is made from.

Luke XI, 6 — ‘ἐξ ὁδοῦ’ - ‘ex odou’ - ‘from the road’. That is, ‘from where?’.

Luke XI, 7 — ‘εἰς τὴν κοίτην’ - ‘eis ten koiten’ - ‘in bed’.
