of the fullness-completion
| Root | πλήρωμα (plērōma) |
| Core Meanings | fullness, that which fills, completion, fulfillment, total content |
| Semantic Range | that which fills something, full content, total sum, completeness, fulfillment of time, divine fullness, abundance |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical theology, πλήρωμα often denotes the total fullness of deity, time, or redemptive purpose—such as the fullness of time or the fullness dwelling in Messiah—emphasizing completeness and the realized totality of God’s plan or presence. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun, genitive, neuter, singular (Gr,N,,,,,GNS,). Indicates possession, source, or relation: "of the fullness/completion." |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root sense of πληρόω (to fill, make full, complete) by expressing both fullness and completion. The genitive singular form (GNS) is reflected by the phrase "of the," marking possession or source, while maintaining the neuter singular sense of a completed totality. |
