Use Strong's responsibly

Strong's is an index and starting point, not the final meaning of a word. Do not build doctrine from a gloss, root, or number. Test meaning by sentence, grammar, authorial usage, context, and the passage argument.

Thayer's Greek Lexicon

μήτις (so R G Joh 4:33), more correctly μή τίς;

1. prohibitive, let no one (cf. Buttmann, 31 (28)): (with 1 aorist subjunctive 1Co 16:11); with 2 aorist subjunctive, 2Th 2:8.

2. interrogative (Lat:num quis?) hath anyone etc.: Joh 7:48; (2Co 12:17, cf. Buttmann, § 151, 7; Winers Grammar, 574 (534)); where one would gladly believe what he asks about doubtfully (see μήτι, under the end): Joh 4:33.
