| Semantic Range | who, which one, what person, anyone, someone, a certain one; in some contexts extends to things (“what?”) depending on gender and case forms. |
| Conceptual Significance | τίς frequently introduces questions of identity, authority, and responsibility in the biblical text, highlighting personal accountability and the revelation of true identity—whether human or divine—within narrative and theological discourse. |
| Morphological Notes | Interrogative/indefinite pronoun; nominative, masculine, singular (Gr,RT/RI,,,,NMS,). Functions as a subject in a clause, asking or indicating the identity of one male or grammatically masculine individual. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the core interrogative sense of τίς as a question about identity, expressed here in the nominative masculine singular, indicating a single male subject or grammatically masculine referent. The nominative case is reflected by framing it as a subject question (“who?”), maintaining its syntactic role. |
