SIBI-P1 G1438-10
of himself (of itself)
| Morphological Notes | Gr,RE,,,3GMS / 3GNS = reflexive pronoun, 3rd person, genitive singular, masculine or neuter. The genitive case typically denotes possession ("of himself"), source, or close association. Form is identical for masculine and neuter genitive singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form ἑαυτοῦ is a third-person reflexive pronoun in the genitive singular (masculine or neuter). Rendering it as "of himself" (or "of itself" for neuter referents) preserves both the reflexive force (self-reference to the subject) and the genitive case, which commonly expresses possession, source, or relation. |
