SIBI-P1 G1785-04
an enjoined directive
| Morphological Notes | Noun; nominative case; feminine gender; singular number (Gr,N,,,,,NFS,). Functions typically as the subject or predicate nominative in a clause. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "an enjoined directive" preserves the root sense from ἐντέλλομαι (to charge, command, give orders), highlighting that this is something formally laid upon someone with authority. The nominative feminine singular form is reflected as a singular concrete item functioning as the subject of a clause. |
