οὐδὲ ἐροῦσιν Ἰδοὺ ὧδε ἤ Ἐκεῖ· ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ ἐντὸς ὑμῶν ἐστιν
“nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There it is!’ For behold, the kingdom of God is within you.”
The Greek word “ἐντὸς” (entos) is typically understood to mean “within” or “inside,” though some translations interpret it as “in the midst of” or “among”.
The #Ineffable is in the midst of and among us.
