SIBI-P1 Translation G435-07
of a man
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine, singular, genitive (Gr,N,,,,,GMS): denotes possession, relationship, or source. |
| Rendering Rationale | The genitive singular form ἀνδρός denotes possession, source, or relation and is best rendered "of a man," preserving the core sense of an adult male human being. This maintains the root meaning without introducing contextual specification such as "husband." |
