STRONGS G3383:
μήτε (μή and the enclitic τέ) (from Homer down), a copulative conjunction of negation, neither, nor (differing from οὔτε as μή does from οὐ. It differs from μηδέ; in that μηδέ separates different things, but μήτε those which are of the same kind or which are parts of one whole; cf. Winers Grammar, § 55, 6; (Buttmann, § 149, 13 b.)): μήτε... μήτε, neither... nor, Luke 7:33 (T μή... μηδέ); Luke 9:3 (five times); Acts 23:12, 21; Acts 27:20; Hebrews 7:3; (but in Ephesians 4:27 for μή... μήτε we must with L T Tr WH substitute μή... μηδέ). μή... μήτε... μήτε, Matthew 5:34-36 (four times); 1 Timothy 1:7; James 5:12; Revelation 7:3; ἵνα μή... μήτε... μήτε, Revelation 7:1; μηδέ... μήτε... μήτε, 2 Thessalonians 2:2 L T Tr WH; μή εἶναι ἀνάστασιν, μηδέ ἄγγελον (for that is something other than ἀνάστασις), μήτε πνεῦμα (because angels belong to the genus πνεύματα), Acts 23:8 R G; cf. Winers Grammar, 493 (409); (Buttmann, 367f (314f)).
