a denarius-coin (accusative singular neuter)
| Root | δηνάριον (dēnarion) |
| Core Meanings | denarius, Roman silver coin, daily wage coin, monetary unit |
| Semantic Range | a Roman silver coin; a standard daily wage for a laborer; a monetary measure in parables and transactional contexts |
| Conceptual Significance | The δηνάριον represents the standard daily wage in the Roman world and appears in key teachings of Jesus (e.g., laborers in the vineyard, tribute to Caesar), grounding spiritual instruction in everyday economic reality and highlighting themes of justice, obligation, and divine versus imperial authority. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun; accusative singular neuter (Gr,N,,,,,ANS,) in the cited forms, functioning typically as a direct object. Other attested forms in this entry include genitive plural (GNP), indicating possession or quantity ("of denarii"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the historical and economic sense of δηνάριον as a specific Roman silver coin rather than generalizing it as "penny." The accusative singular neuter form (ANS) is reflected by indicating it as a single direct-object coin, maintaining both number and case in view. |
