SIBI-P1 G2414-04

O Yerushalaim (Holy City of Peace)

Morphological NotesProper noun, feminine, singular, indeclinable. Appears in vocative (VFSI), dative (DFSI), genitive (GFSI), and accusative (AFSI) singular forms; though case is indicated syntactically, the form itself remains unchanged due to indeclinability.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering preserves the Hebrew-rooted name "Yerushalaim," maintaining its connection to the meaning traditionally associated with peace (shalom). The vocative feminine singular form (as reflected in VFSI) is expressed by "O," indicating direct address, while recognizing the noun’s indeclinable proper-name status in Greek.
