SIBI-P1 G2715-01
they are exercising down-authority over
| Morphological Notes | Verb; present active indicative, 3rd person plural (Gr,V,IPA3,,P,). The present tense indicates ongoing or characteristic action; active voice shows the subject performing the action; indicative mood states it as a factual assertion. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the compound force of κατά (down, against) intensifying ἐξουσιάζω (to exercise authority), conveying dominating or subduing authority. The present active indicative, third person plural (IPA3P) is reflected in "they are exercising," indicating ongoing or characteristic action performed by multiple subjects. |
