SIBI-P1 G228-03

of a genuine (feminine)

Morphological NotesAdjective, genitive feminine singular (GFS). The genitive case typically expresses possession, source, or description; feminine singular agrees with a feminine noun in the same case.
Rendering RationaleThe adjective ἀληθινός denotes what is truly real or genuine as opposed to what is merely apparent. Rendering it as "genuine" preserves the sense of correspondence to reality, and the phrase "of a genuine (feminine)" reflects the genitive feminine singular form shown in the morphology.
