ἄρτι, adverb, according to its derivation (from
ΑΡΩ to draw close together, to join, Latin
arto; [cf. Curtius, § 488]) denoting time closely connected;
1. in Attic "
just now, this moment (German
gerade,
eben), marking something begun or finished even now, just before the time in which we are speaking" (
Lobeck ad Phryn., p. 20):
Matthew 9:18;
1 Thessalonians 3:6, and perhaps
Revelation 12:10.

now, at this time; opposed to past time:
John 9:19,
25;
John 13:33;
1 Corinthians 16:7;
Galatians 1:9f, opposed to future time:
John 13:37;
John 16:12,
31;
2 Thessalonians 2:7; opposed to future time subsequent to the return of Christ:
1 Corinthians 13:12;
1 Peter 1:6,
8. of present time most closely limited,
at this very time, this moment:
Matthew 3:15;
Matthew 26:53;
John 13:7;
Galatians 4:20.
ἄχρι τῆς ἄρτι ὥρας,
1 Corinthians 4:11;
ἕως ἄρτι,
hitherto; until now, up to this time:
Matthew 11:12;
John 2:10;
John 5:17;

1 Corinthians 4:13;
1 Corinthians 8:7;
1 Corinthians 15:6;

Rutherford, New Phryn., p. 70f].
[Synonyms ἄρτι, ἤδη, νῦν: Roughly speaking, it may be said that ἄρτι just now, even now, properly marks time closely connected with the present; later, strictly present time, (see above, and compare in English "just now" i. e. a moment ago, and "just now" (emphatic) i. e. at this present time). νῦν now, marks a definite point (or period) of time, the (objective) immediate present. ἤδη now (already) with a suggested reference to some other time or to some expectation, the subjective present (i. e. so regarded by the writer). ἤδη and ἄρτι are associated in 2 Thessalonians 2:7; νῦν and ἤδη in 1 John 4:3. See Kühner §§ 498; 499; Bäumlein, Partikeln, p. 138ff; Ellic. on 1 Thessalonians 3:6; 2 Timothy 4:6.]
