The Greek pronoun hēmeis is the first person plural nominative pronoun — "we." It is an emphatic form that emphasizes the group speaking. In Greek, the pronoun is often embedded in verb endings, so the explicit use of hēmeis adds emphasis to the communal identity of the speakers.
The pronoun hēmeis (we/us) carries deep theological weight in the New Testament, particularly in the Johannine and Pauline writings. In 1 John, "we" language marks the community of those who have seen, heard, and touched the incarnate Word (1 John 1:1–4). In Romans, "we" identifies the community of faith who have been justified, who have peace with God, who share in the Spirit. The shift from "I" to "we" marks conversion into the body of Christ — individual salvation is simultaneously incorporation into community.
