having left behind
| Morphological Notes | Verb, aorist active participle, accusative masculine plural — indicating a completed action performed by masculine plural subjects, functioning adjectivally or substantivally in the accusative case. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active participle denotes a completed act of departing and leaving something or someone behind. "Having left behind" preserves the core sense of separation by departure inherent in ἀπολείπω and reflects the participial, completed action. |
