Conceptual Significanceκαθότι links action or judgment to a specific standard, fact, or measure, emphasizing correspondence between divine action and human condition. It often grounds exhortation or explanation in an established reality, reinforcing the biblical theme of actions occurring in accordance with truth or divine order.
Morphological NotesGr,CS = subordinating conjunction (indeclinable); Gr,D = adverb (indeclinable). The form does not vary for tense, voice, mood, case, gender, or number, but functions to introduce a dependent clause expressing cause or standard.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering "according-to-that-which" preserves the compound structure (κατά + ὅτι/ὅς τις), highlighting the idea of conformity to a specific fact or condition. As a subordinating conjunction or adverb (indeclinable), it introduces a clause expressing cause, measure, or correspondence, which this rendering makes explicit.
