land
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative, feminine, singular (Gr,N,,,,,AFS) — direct object form of γῆ. |
| Rendering Rationale | "Land" preserves the core sense of physical ground or terrestrial territory inherent in γῆ. The accusative singular form indicates it functions as a direct object, though English does not mark this case distinctly. |
