Rootοὐδείς (oudeis)
Core Meaningsno one, none, not even one, nobody, nothing
Semantic Rangeno one, nobody, none at all, not even a single person, nothing (contextually extended to things)
Conceptual Significanceοὐδείς often underscores total negation or universal absence, frequently in theological contexts to stress human inability, universal sinfulness, or the exclusivity of divine action (e.g., "not even one" righteous). It intensifies denial by combining absolute negation with numerical singularity.
Morphological NotesGr,RI,,,,NMS — indefinite pronoun; nominative case; masculine gender; singular number. Functions as a singular masculine subject meaning "no one" or "not even one."
Rendering RationaleThe rendering preserves the compound force of οὐδέ ("not even") and εἷς ("one"), making explicit the emphatic negation: "not-even-one." The nominative masculine singular form is reflected by "(man)," indicating a single masculine subject functioning in the nominative case.
