SIBI-P1 G2192-10
we are holding
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present tense (ongoing aspect), active voice, indicative mood (statement of fact), first person plural — "we are holding/having." |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active indicative first-person plural form denotes an ongoing, real action performed by "we." "We are holding" preserves the root sense of ἔχω as active possession or grasping, while reflecting the present tense (continuous aspect), active voice, and first-person plural subject. |
