SIBI-P1 G4487-01
a spoken-utterance
| Morphological Notes | Noun; accusative neuter singular (Gr,N,,,,,ANS,) in most occurrences, with identical nominative neuter singular form (NNS) in some contexts. As a neuter second-declension noun, nominative and accusative singular share the same form. |
| Rendering Rationale | Ῥῆμα denotes that which has been spoken—an uttered matter or specific saying—highlighting the concrete expression rather than abstract discourse. The form here is accusative neuter singular, reflected in the singular rendering "a spoken-utterance," suitable for a direct object and preserving its neuter, singular sense as a single articulated statement. |
