| Morphological Notes | Gr,N,,,,,NFS = noun, nominative case, feminine gender, singular number. As nominative singular, it typically functions as the subject or predicate nominative in a clause. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun βασιλεία derives from βασιλεύς (king) and fundamentally denotes the state or exercise of being king—"kingship" or "royal rule." Rendering it as "kingship" preserves the abstract sense of reigning authority rather than merely a geographical territory. The form is nominative feminine singular, represented in English as a singular abstract noun functioning as the subject. |
