SIBI-P1 G352-02
having unbent-upward
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist active participle; nominative masculine singular (Gr,V,PAA,NMS). The aorist participle denotes a simple, completed action antecedent to the main verb, describing a masculine singular subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "having unbent-upward" preserves the root sense of ἀνά (upward/reversal) and κύπτω (to bend), conveying the idea of reversing a bent posture. As an aorist active participle nominative masculine singular, it expresses a completed action performed by a masculine singular subject prior to the main verb—"having" marks the participial and antecedent aspect, while the active sense is retained. |
