SIBI-P1 G2537-04
new-in-kind (feminine singular, accusative)
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, accusative feminine singular (Gr,AA,,,,AFS,). It agrees with a feminine singular noun in the accusative case, typically functioning as a direct object or complement. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective καινός denotes newness in quality or kind rather than mere recent origin (as with νέος). The form καινήν/καινὴν is accusative feminine singular, describing a feminine singular noun functioning as a direct object; the rendering preserves both the qualitative sense of newness and the grammatical features. |
