1 Strong's Number: g2228 Greek: e

Either:

E is a disjunctive particle. One of its uses is to distinguish things which exclude each other, or one of which can take the place of another. It is translated "either" in Mat 6:24; 12:33; Luk 16:13; Act 17:21; 1Cr 14:6. The RV rightly omits it in Luk 6:42, and translates it by "or" in Luk 15:8; Phl 3:12; Jam 3:12.

Note: The adverb enteuthen, denoting "hence," is repeated in the phrase rendered "on either side," (lit., "hence and hence") in Jhn 19:18. The RV of Rev 22:2translates it "on this side," distinguishing it from ekeithen, "on that side;" the AV, following another reading for the latter adverb, has "on either side."
See HENCE.
