to/with the mouth-opening

Rootστόμα (stoma)
Core Meaningsmouth, opening, orifice, edge, front
Semantic Rangephysical mouth of a person or animal; spoken expression; opening of the earth; edge or blade of a weapon; figuratively, agency of speech or testimony
Conceptual Significanceστόμα often represents the instrument of speech, linking physical utterance with testimony, praise, judgment, or divine revelation. Its metaphorical extension to openings and edges underscores themes of exposure, proclamation, and decisive action in biblical literature.
Morphological NotesGr,N,,,,,DNS = noun, dative case, neuter, singular. Dative typically marks indirect object, means/instrument, or location.
Rendering RationaleThe noun στόμα denotes a physical mouth or opening, extended metaphorically to speech or the edge of a weapon. The form στόματι is dative neuter singular, which commonly expresses means, instrument, or location; thus "to/with the mouth-opening" preserves both the core image of an opening and the dative sense of instrumentality or sphere.
