SIBI-P1 G40-01
set-apart holy (feminine singular) / set-apart holy things (neuter plural)
| Morphological Notes | Forms include nominative feminine singular adjective (Gr,AA/NS/NP,,,,NFS,) and nominative neuter plural (Gr,NP,,,,NNP,). These are adjectival forms of ἅγιος functioning either attributively or substantivally; nominative case marks subject or predicate usage. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "set-apart holy" preserves the core idea of ἅγιος as something distinct and consecrated to God. The feminine singular form reflects agreement with a feminine noun (or a substantival "holy [woman/thing]"), while the neuter plural reflects "holy things," maintaining both gender and number distinctions present in the morphology. |
