Morphological NotesNoun, nominative, masculine, singular (NMS). This form functions typically as the subject of a sentence or as a predicate nominative, referring to a single instance of law or governing principle.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering "the apportioned-law" reflects the root idea of νόμος as something distributed or allotted (from νέμω, to apportion), emphasizing law as a prescribed and assigned order.
