| Core Meanings | three, triad, a group of three |
| Semantic Range | The number three; a set or group of three persons or things; symbolically a triad or complete grouping in certain contexts. |
| Conceptual Significance | The number three often carries symbolic weight in biblical literature, signifying completeness, confirmation, or divine fullness (e.g., three witnesses, three days, triadic patterns), while also functioning in ordinary numerical description. |
| Morphological Notes | Enumeral (cardinal number); feminine plural, occurring in nominative or accusative case (AFP/NFP). As a primary number, it agrees in gender, number, and case with the noun it modifies. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form τρεῖς is a feminine plural form of the cardinal number "three," functioning in nominative or accusative case. Rendering it as "three (feminine plural)" preserves both the numerical core meaning and the grammatical agreement with feminine plural nouns indicated by the morphology (AFP/NFP). |
