It underscores inclusiveness based on participation or qualification rather than ethnicity or status, highlighting the breadth of divine invitation and accountability. |
| Morphological Notes | Relative pronoun (RR); nominative masculine plural (NMP). Functions substantivally as the subject of a clause, referring to all persons (masculine plural, often inclusive of mixed groups) who meet a stated condition or measure. |
| Rendering Rationale | ὅσοι is the nominative masculine plural form of the relative/quantitative pronoun ὅσος, denoting a group corresponding in number or extent. The rendering "as-many-as (those ones, masc. nom. pl.)" preserves the quantitative force of the root while reflecting its nominative case (subject role), masculine gender, and plural number. |
