| Rendering Rationale | The term Καϊάφας is a proper noun of Aramaic origin used as a personal name. As a nominative masculine singular noun, it functions as the subject of a clause, and English likewise represents it in its base form "Caiaphas" without added inflection. Retaining the proper name preserves both its lexical identity and its grammatical role as a singular masculine subject. |
