SIBI-P1 G1208-04

to the second (one/thing)

Rootδεύτερος (deuteros)
Core Meaningssecond, following, next in sequence, subsequent in time or rank
Semantic Rangesecond in sequence, second in time, second in rank, another following, again (in adverbial usage)
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical usage, δεύτερος often marks ordered sequence (such as a second commandment, witness, or event), reinforcing themes of confirmation, repetition, or established order within covenantal and legal contexts.
Morphological NotesAdjective, dative singular (masculine or neuter). The form δευτέρῳ can modify a dative singular masculine or neuter noun, or function substantivally as "to the second (one/thing)."
Rendering RationaleThe rendering preserves the ordinal force of δεύτερος as "second" while reflecting the dative singular form (masculine or neuter), expressed in English with "to the." The substantival sense ("the second one/thing") reflects how the adjective commonly functions when no noun is explicitly supplied.
