ALBE'IT, [This is supposed to be a compound of all, be and it, and is equivalent to admit, or grant it all.]
Be it so; admit all that; although; notwithstanding.
Whereas ye say, the Lord saith it, albeit I have not spoken. Ezek 8.
[This word is not antiquated.]

ol-be'-it (hina me; literally, "lest"): Occurs in a paraphrase rather than as a translation of a clause in Phm 1:19 the King James Version. The thought is: "although" or "albeit" (synonym of "although") "I might say," etc. This the Revised Version (British and American) translates with intense literalness: "that I say not".
