of one another
| Morphological Notes | Reciprocal pronoun; genitive plural, masculine (used generically for mixed groups). Genitive case indicates possession, relation, or reference among the group members. |
| Rendering Rationale | The genitive plural reciprocal pronoun denotes mutual possession, relation, or reference among members of a group. "Of one another" preserves the genitive case and the inherently reciprocal force of the reduplicated form from ἄλλος ("other"). |
