SIBI-P1 G3992-17
the one having dispatched
| Morphological Notes | Verb, aorist active participle, nominative masculine singular (Gr,V,PAA,NMS). The aorist denotes a completed action; active voice indicates the subject performs the sending; participle functions adjectivally or substantivally; nominative masculine singular agrees with a masculine singular subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active participle (PAA) conveys a completed action viewed as a whole, so "having dispatched" reflects the aorist aspect. As a nominative masculine singular participle, it functions substantivally as "the one," preserving both the grammatical form and the root sense of sending from the point of origin. |
