bodies
Body – the physical body of a living being, whether human or animal; more generally, the material or outward, tangible aspect of a person or creature. In extended usage, can signify the collective body (e.g., a corporation, a group of people viewed as a unified entity) or, in some specialized contexts, a corpse. Seldom, in idiomatic uses, may refer to the whole self, or a tangible object distinct from immaterial aspects.

bodies
| Morphological Notes | Noun, nominative, neuter, plural (Gr,N,,,,,NNP/ANP): functioning as subject or predicate nominative/accusative plural form depending on syntactic role, here preserved simply as nominative plural in form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun σῶμα denotes the physical or tangible body of a being, or a unified entity conceived as a body. The nominative neuter plural form requires the rendering "bodies," preserving both number and case without adding contextual nuance. |
