SIBI-P1 G2937-01
to the creation
| Morphological Notes | Noun, dative feminine singular (Gr,N,,,,,DFS,). The dative case commonly expresses indirect object ("to/for"), sphere ("in"), or reference; feminine gender agrees with the lexical form κτίσις; singular indicates one creation or created order viewed as a whole. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root sense of κτίσις as that which has been founded or brought into being (from κτίζω, "to create/found"). The dative feminine singular form is reflected by "to the," marking indirect object, sphere, or reference, and by the singular "creation." |
