SIBI-P1 Translation G308-02
of having looked up
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist active participle; genitive masculine singular (Gr,V,PAA,GMS) — denoting a completed act of looking up, modifying a masculine singular noun in the genitive. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active participle expresses a completed act of directing the gaze upward. The genitive masculine singular form is reflected by "of having looked up," preserving both the participial force and case relationship. |
