SIBI-P1 G769-01
the weakness (feminine singular)
| Morphological Notes | Noun; feminine; singular; occurring in nominative singular (NFS) and dative singular (DFS) forms. As an abstract feminine noun built from ἀσθενής (weak), it denotes a state or condition of weakness. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "the weakness" preserves the core sense of ἀσθένεια as a state of lack of strength or capacity, whether physical, moral, or spiritual. The nominative feminine singular form is reflected by the singular abstract noun with the article, matching the grammatical form attested (NFS), while the dative forms in the data would contextually be rendered "to/for/by the weakness." |
