SIBI-P1 G1510-36

to the one-being

Morphological NotesVerb; present active participle; dative masculine singular. From εἰμί ("to be"). The present participle denotes ongoing state or existence; dative case often expresses indirect object, reference, or sphere.
Rendering RationaleThe form ὄντι is the present active participle of εἰμί in the dative masculine singular. "One-being" preserves the root idea of ongoing existence inherent in the present participle, while "to the" reflects the dative case and masculine singular form.
