SIBI-P1 Translation G1272-06
he thoroughly opened
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple completed action), active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active indicative, third person singular, denotes a simple completed action performed by him. "Thoroughly opened" reflects the intensified force of δια- (through, completely) combined with ἀνοίγω, preserving the root sense of opening fully or making fully accessible. |
