SIBI-P1 G4487-03
uttered matters
| Morphological Notes | Noun, neuter plural; appears in nominative neuter plural (NNP) and accusative neuter plural (ANP) forms. As a neuter plural, it can function as subject or direct object depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "uttered matters" preserves the root sense of ῥῆμα as something spoken or expressed, derived from ῥέω (to flow), emphasizing speech as that which flows forth. The plural form reflects the neuter plural (nominative or accusative) morphology, indicating multiple spoken items or declared things rather than a singular abstract concept. |
