SIBI-P1 Translation G3936-17
having stood beside
| Morphological Notes | Verb, perfect active participle, dative masculine plural (Gr,V,PEA,DMP); completed action with continuing state, describing masculine plural referents in the dative case. |
| Rendering Rationale | The perfect active participle expresses a completed action with ongoing result; thus "having stood beside" reflects the state of being present as a result of standing beside. It preserves the core root sense of standing alongside while matching the participial form. |
