greater ones
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, comparative degree; accusative plural masculine (AMPC) and accusative plural feminine (AFPC) forms attested. Used substantively to denote people or things that are greater in number, size, or degree. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form πλείονας is the comparative adjective from πολύς (“much, many”), here in the accusative plural (masculine or feminine). “Greater ones” preserves the comparative force (“more/greater”) and reflects the plural substantive use of the adjective functioning as a direct object. |
