SIBI-P1 G191-24

the having-heard men

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist active participle; nominative masculine plural (Gr,V,PAA,NMP). The aorist participle denotes action completed prior to the main verb; active voice indicates the subjects perform the hearing.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering preserves the root sense of ἀκούω (“to hear”) while reflecting the aorist tense as a completed action (“having-heard”). The nominative masculine plural participle is expressed substantivally as “the … men,” maintaining both gender and number as indicated by the morphology.
