SIBI-P1 G2692-01

by the overturning

Morphological NotesNoun; dative feminine singular (Gr,N,,,,,DFS,). The dative case here likely expresses means or instrument ("by/through"), though it may also denote sphere ("in").
Rendering RationaleThe noun καταστροφῇ is dative feminine singular, indicating a single act or state of overturning functioning in the dative case, often expressing means or instrument. "By the overturning" preserves the concrete root sense of a turning-down or demolition (from καταστρέφω, "to turn down/overthrow") while reflecting the singular dative form.
