SIBI-P1 G4666-02

of myrrh-resin

Morphological NotesNoun, genitive feminine singular (Gr,N,,,,,GFS,); denotes possession, source, or material composition in this form.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering "of myrrh-resin" preserves the concrete sense of σμύρνα as a fragrant resin rather than a generic perfume. The genitive feminine singular form (σμύρνης) is reflected by "of," marking possession, source, or composition, as required by the morphology.
