SIBI-P1 G2068-27
let us eat
| Morphological Notes | Gr,V,SAA1,,P = Verb; Second Aorist; Active voice; Subjunctive mood; 1st person plural. From ἐσθίω, with aorist stem φαγ-. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is second aorist active subjunctive, first person plural, which in context commonly functions as a hortatory subjunctive (“let us…”). "Let us eat" preserves the active voice, the simple aorist aspect (a single act of eating), and the first person plural number inherent in φάγωμεν. |
