to the seed
| Morphological Notes | Noun, dative singular neuter (Gr,N,,,,,DNS,). From σπείρω (to sow). The dative case can denote indirect object (to/for), means (by), location (in), or reference. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form σπέρματι is dative singular neuter, indicating indirect object, sphere, means, or reference. "To the seed" preserves the concrete agricultural root sense of something sown while accurately reflecting the dative case and singular number. |
