SIBI-P1 G3853-13

we were passing-along charge

Morphological NotesVerb; imperfect tense (ongoing past action), active voice, indicative mood, first person plural ("we").
Rendering RationaleThe verb παραγγέλλω combines παρά (alongside) with the root related to ἄγγελος (messenger), conveying the idea of passing along an authoritative message. The imperfect active indicative, first person plural, is reflected in "we were," expressing ongoing past action, while "passing-along charge" preserves both the transmission imagery and the authoritative sense of command.
