SIBI-P1 G891-01
up-to-the-limit-of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition (PI) governing the genitive case; indeclinable; expresses extension to a temporal or spatial boundary. |
| Rendering Rationale | Ἄχρι denotes movement or extension to a boundary or extremity, whether in time or space, reflecting its connection to ἄκρον ("extremity, tip"). The rendering "up-to-the-limit-of" preserves this sense of reaching a terminus and reflects its function as a preposition governing the genitive case. |
