of-whom (masculine singular genitive)
| Root | οὗ (hoû) |
| Core Meanings | of whom, of which, where, from which place |
| Semantic Range | of whom, of which, from whom, from which, whose, where (as an adverb of place), from which place |
| Conceptual Significance | As a relative form, οὗ connects clauses and establishes relationships of source, possession, or origin. In biblical discourse it often links theological affirmations to their divine source, emphasizing derivation, belonging, or covenantal relationship. |
| Morphological Notes | Gr,RD or Gr,RR,,,,GMS = relative determiner/pronoun, genitive masculine singular. In some contexts (Gr,D) it functions adverbially as "where" or "from which place." The genitive case commonly expresses source, possession, or close association. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form οὗ is the genitive masculine singular of the relative pronoun ὅς, meaning "of whom" or "of which." Rendering it as "of-whom" preserves both its relational force and its genitive case (showing source, possession, or association), while specifying masculine singular reflects the morphology indicated. |
