SIBI-P1 G565-12

that I should go-away

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist active subjunctive, 1st person singular (Gr,V,SAA1,,S,). The aorist presents the action as a complete event; the subjunctive expresses purpose, possibility, or contingency; active voice; first person singular subject ("I").
Rendering RationaleThe verb ἀπέλθω is aorist active subjunctive, first person singular, expressing a simple or complete action viewed as a whole with a sense of possibility or intent. "That I should go-away" preserves the directional force of ἀπό (away from) joined to ἔρχομαι (to come/go), while reflecting the subjunctive mood and first-person singular form.
