SIBI-P1 G3441-05

the alone ones

Rootμόνος (monos)
Core Meaningsremaining, sole, single, alone, only, solitary
Semantic Rangealone, only, solitary, by oneself, sole, exclusive, remaining apart from others
Conceptual Significanceμόνος often marks exclusivity or separation—whether physical isolation, unique status, or sole authority. In biblical contexts it can emphasize exclusivity of worship (God alone), uniqueness of identity, or the isolation of individuals or groups, reinforcing themes of distinct calling or singular devotion.
Morphological NotesAdjective (and occasionally substantive), nominative masculine plural (NMP). Functions attributively or substantivally; here parsed as nominative masculine plural, describing or identifying a group as "alone" or "only."
Rendering RationaleThe rendering "the alone ones" preserves the root sense of μόνος as "sole, remaining, solitary" while reflecting the nominative masculine plural form (NMP). By using a plural substantive expression, it mirrors the Greek adjective functioning substantivally to describe a specific group as "the ones who are alone/only."
