SIBI-P1 G242-02
of the self-springing-up (thing)
| Morphological Notes | Verb, present tense (ongoing action), middle voice (subject acting with reference to itself), participle, genitive case, neuter singular (Gr,V,PPM,GNS). |
| Rendering Rationale | The lemma ἅλλομαι means "to leap" or "to spring up," often of water gushing. The form is a present middle participle in the genitive neuter singular, so the rendering reflects ongoing action ("springing-up"), middle voice nuance ("self-springing"), and genitive case ("of the..."). The neuter singular is conveyed by "(thing)." |
