O stone-throwing woman
| Root | λιθοβολέω (lithoboleō) |
| Core Meanings | to throw stones, to stone, to pelt with stones, to execute by stoning |
| Semantic Range | to throw stones at, to pelt with stones, to execute by stoning, to participate in communal judicial punishment |
| Conceptual Significance | Stoning was a prescribed covenantal judicial penalty in the Torah for certain grave offenses; the term evokes communal judgment, covenant enforcement, and themes of accusation, justice, and mercy in Second Temple Jewish context. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, present active participle, vocative feminine singular (Gr,V,PPA,VFS); denotes a female being directly addressed who is actively engaged in the action of stoning. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the compound root meaning (λίθος "stone" + βάλλω "to throw") as "stone-throwing." The present active participle is expressed as ongoing action ("throwing"), and the vocative feminine singular form is reflected by the direct address "O ... woman." |
