SIBI-P1 G3708-22

you-all might see (for yourselves)

Morphological NotesVerb; second aorist (simple/completed aspect), active or middle voice; subjunctive mood; 2nd person plural. The subjunctive conveys purpose, possibility, or exhortation directed to "you-all."
Rendering RationaleThe verb ὁράω fundamentally means "to see" in the sense of perceiving or discerning. The form is second aorist subjunctive, second person plural, expressing a simple or complete act of seeing viewed as a whole, with a sense of possibility, purpose, or exhortation ("might/should"). The inclusion of "for yourselves" reflects the middle nuance present in some occurrences, preserving the reflexive or self-involved force.
