Exegesis
The second protasis, kai ean echō pasan tēn pistin {καὶ ἐὰν ἔχω πᾶσαν τὴν πίστιν | kaì eàn échō pâsan tḕn pístin}, intensifies the hypothetical scenario by adding “all faith,” which is then qualified by the result clause introduced by hōste {ὥστε | hṓste}.
Root and etymology
peithōpi–epsilon–iota–theta–omega
“to persuade, to trust”
In context — 1 Corinthians 13:2
And if I have prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to move mountains, but do not have love , I am nothing.
