SIBI-P1 Translation G1771-01
inward intention
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative feminine singular (Gr,N,,,,,AFS) — one feminine noun functioning as direct object. |
| Rendering Rationale | "Inward intention" reflects the compound sense of what is in the mind (ἐν + νοῦς) and preserves the idea of a conceived purpose or thought. The accusative feminine singular form indicates a single specific mental conception as the direct object. |

mind

| Rationale | Context communicates a concept of 'mind' or 'think the same way'; 'inward intention' is less natural in English here. 'Mind' reflects the standard translation and maintains the cognitive nuance. |
