SIBI-P1 G3004-26

he/she/it has laid-forth (in word)

Morphological NotesVerb; perfect tense, active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person singular. The perfect denotes a completed act with continuing relevance or result in the present.
Rendering RationaleThe verb λέγω fundamentally means to "lay forth" in speech. The perfect active indicative, third person singular (IEA3,S) conveys a completed act with abiding result, so "has laid-forth" reflects both the root imagery and the present force of something spoken that now stands as stated.
