SIBI-P1 Translation G1774-05
dwelt within
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple past), active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active indicative, third person singular, denotes a completed act of dwelling. "Dwelt within" preserves the compound force of ἐν (within) + οἰκέω (to dwell), emphasizing internal residence rather than mere proximity. |
