[Syn. ἄρτι, ἤδη, νῦν: Roughly speaking, it may be said that ἄρτι just now, even now, properly marks time closely connected with the present; later, strictly present time, (see above, and compare in Eng. “just now” i.e. a moment ago, and “just now” (emphat.) i.e. at this precise time). νῦν now, marks a definite point (or period) of time, the (objective) immediate present. ἤδη now (already) with a suggested reference to some other time or to some expectation, the subjective present (i.e. so regarded by the writer). ἤδη and ἄρτι are associated in 2 Thess. ii. 7; νῦν and ἤδη in 1 Jn. iv. 3.
