SIBI-P1 G3708-25
having-seen (he)
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist active participle; nominative masculine singular (Gr,V,PAA,NMS). Denotes a completed act of seeing, functioning adjectivally or circumstantially with a masculine singular subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active participle conveys a completed act of seeing prior to the main verb, so "having-seen" reflects the aorist aspect. The nominative masculine singular form is represented by "(he)," indicating a masculine singular subject performing the action. |
