Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Strong's Number: g3664 Greek: homoios

Likewise:

"in like manner" (from the adjective homoios, see LIKE, A, No. 1), is rendered "likewise" in the AV of Mat 22:26; 27:41, Luk 10:32; 16:25; Jhn 5:19; Jam 2:25; 1Pe 3:1, 7; Jud 1:8; Rev 8:12 (in all these the RV has "in like manner"); in the following, AV and RV have "likewise;" Mat 26:35; Luk 5:33; 6:31; 10:37; 17:28, 31; 22:36; Jhn 6:11; 21:13; Rom 1:27; 1Pe 5:5.
See MANNER, SO.

2 Strong's Number: g5615 Greek: hosautos

Likewise:

a strengthened form of hos, "as," denotes "in like manner, just so, likewise;" it is sometimes translated "likewise," e.g., Mat 20:5; 21:30.

3 Strong's Number: g2532 Greek: kai

Likewise:

"and, even," is translated "likewise" in the AV and RV of Mat 20:10 (last kai in the verse), more lit., "even they;" elsewhere the RV has "also," for the AV, "likewise," Mat 18:35; 24:33; Luk 3:14; 17:10; 19:19; 21:31; Act 3:24; 1Cr 14:9; Col 4:16; 1Pe 4:1; in Mat 21:24, the AV has "in like wise" (RV, "likewise").

4 Strong's Number: g3898 Greek: paraplesios

Likewise:

from para, "beside," and the adjective plesios, "near" (akin to the adverb pelas, "near, hard by"), is used in Hbr 2:14, AV, "likewise" (RV, "in like manner"), expressing the true humanity of Christ in partaking of flesh and blood.

Notes:

(1) In Mat 17:12; Rom 6:11, AV, the adverb houtos, "thus, so," is translated "likewise," (RV, "so"); in Luk 15:7 and 10, AV, "likewise," RV, "even so;"

(2) in Luk 14:33, AV, followed by oun, "therefore," it is rendered "so likewise" (RV, "so therefore").
