the foremost ones
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, nominative masculine plural (NMP); superlative form of πρό. Used substantively here, referring to persons characterized as first or foremost. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form πρῶτοι is nominative masculine plural, functioning substantively as “the first/foremost ones.” Rendering it as “the foremost ones” preserves the superlative sense of rank or priority inherent in πρῶτος and reflects its nominative masculine plural form. |
