1: οὐκέτι

(Strong's #3765 — Adverb — ouketi — ook-et'-ee )

a negative adverb of time, signifies "no longer, no more" (ou, "not," k, euphonic, eti "longer"), denying absolutely and directly, e.g., Matthew 19:6; John 4:42 , "now ... not;" John 6:66; Acts 20:25,38; 2 Corinthians 1:23 , AV, "not as yet;" Ephesians 2:19; with another negative, to strengthen the negation, e.g., Matthew 22:46; Mark 14:25; 15:5 , RV, "no more (anything)," AV, "yet ... no (thing);" Acts 8:39; Revelation 18:11,14 .

2: μηκέτι

(Strong's #3371 — Adverb — meketi — may-ket'-ee )

with the same meaning as No. 1, but generally expressing a prohibition, e.g., Matthew 21:19; John 5:14; Romans 14:13; Ephesians 4:28; 1 Timothy 5:23; 1 Peter 4:2; indicating some condition expressed or implied, e.g., 1 Thessalonians 3:5; or non-existence, when the existence might have been possible under certain conditions, e.g., Mark 1:45; 2:2 , RV, "no longer" (AV, "no"). See HENCEFORTH.

Notes: (1) The double negative ou me, "by no means, in no wise," followed by eti, "longer, still, yet," is rendered "no more" in Hebrews 8:12; 10:17; Revelation 3:12 . (2) In John 15:4 , AV, houtos, "so," followed by oude, "neither," is translated "no more" (RV, "so neither").
