SIBI-P1 G2453-07

of the Judeans

Morphological NotesNoun, genitive masculine plural (Gr,NS,,,,GMP,): denotes possession, source, or association; masculine plural referring to multiple Judean persons.
Rendering RationaleThe lemma Ἰουδαῖος denotes one belonging to Judah (Ἰούδα), either geographically (Judea) or ethnically (the people descended from Judah). The form Ἰουδαίων is genitive masculine plural, so the rendering "of the Judeans" preserves both the covenantal-tribal root sense and the grammatical force of possession or association expressed by the genitive plural.
