SIBI-P1 G994-05
of the crying-out one
| Morphological Notes | Verb, present active participle, genitive masculine singular (Gr,V,PPA,GMS). The present tense indicates continuous or ongoing action; active voice shows the subject performing the action; participle functions adjectivally or substantivally; genitive case expresses possession, source, or description. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root sense of loud, urgent vocal outcry inherent in βοάω (“to cry out, shout”). The present active participle conveys ongoing action (“crying out”), and the genitive masculine singular is reflected by "of the … one," indicating possession or description of a specific male individual characterized by this action. |
