SIBI-P1 Translation G4369-04
he added for himself
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/completed action), middle voice (self-involved/reflexive nuance), indicative mood, 3rd person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist indicative conveys a simple completed action in past time (“he added”). The middle voice signals personal involvement or self-interest, thus “for himself,” preserving the reflexive nuance inherent in the form. |
