SIBI-P1 G1118-01
the begetters (masculine plural, nominative/accusative)
| Morphological Notes | Gr,N,,,,,AMP / NMP: noun, accusative masculine plural or nominative masculine plural. The form γονεῖς serves as both nominative and accusative masculine plural of γονεύς. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun γονεύς derives from the root of γίνομαι ("to become, to come into being"), thus denoting those who cause another to come into being—"begetters." Rendering it as "the begetters" preserves this generative root sense rather than the more generalized "parents." The form γονεῖς is masculine plural and functions as either nominative or accusative, which is reflected in the plural subject/object-ready rendering. |
