he-who

Morphological NotesRelative pronoun (RR); nominative case (subject), masculine gender, singular number (NMS). Functions to introduce a relative clause describing a masculine singular antecedent.
Rendering RationaleThe lemma ὅς is the relative pronoun introducing a clause that further identifies a referent. The morphology Gr,RR,,,,NMS indicates a relative pronoun in the nominative masculine singular, so "he-who" preserves both the masculine singular subject function and the relative force linking it to an antecedent.
