SIBI-P1 Translation G3708-25
having seen
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/completed aspect), active voice, participle mood; nominative masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active participle nominative masculine singular denotes a completed act of seeing by a male subject. “Having seen” preserves the aorist aspect (simple, prior action) and retains the primary root sense of visual perception without adding contextual nuance. |
