πέμψαντός
pémpō
of-the-one-who-sent
To cause someone or something to go from one place to another, to send, dispatch, or commission. The verb generally denotes the act by which a sender initiates or authorizes the movement or transmission of a person, message, or object. It can refer both to sending on a specific mission or errand, as well as broader senses of transmitting, delivering, or granting something. While it may sometimes imply a sense of commissioning or assigning, it lacks the nuance of authority or mission that related verbs (such as ἀποστέλλω) often carry.

SIBI-P1 Translation G3992-16
of the one who sent
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist active participle; genitive masculine singular (Gr,V,PAA,GMS) — denoting a completed act of sending, functioning adjectivally in the genitive case. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active participle denotes a completed act of sending, and the genitive masculine singular form indicates possession or relation, hence "of the one who sent." This preserves both the root sense of causing to go and the participial morphology. |
