SIBI-P1 G3854-04

the one having come-near for himself

Morphological NotesGr,V,PAM,NMS — Verb, Aorist, Middle, Participle, Nominative, Masculine, Singular. The aorist participle denotes action completed prior to the main verb; the middle voice conveys self-involvement or personal interest; nominative masculine singular agrees with a masculine subject or is used substantively.
Rendering RationaleThe aorist middle participle is rendered "having come-near" to reflect the completed aspect of the aorist and the root sense of coming alongside (παρά + γίνομαι, "to become beside"). The middle voice is expressed with "for himself," indicating personal involvement or self-directed movement. Nominative masculine singular is conveyed by "the one," showing a singular male subject functioning substantively.
