of the right-hand (things)
| Root | δεξιός (dexios) |
| Core Meanings | right, right-hand, right side, favorable, skillful |
| Semantic Range | the right side in spatial terms, the right hand, a position of honor or authority, what is favorable or auspicious, skillfulness |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical literature, the "right" signifies strength, authority, and favor, especially in references to sitting at the right hand of God. The term often carries symbolic weight, indicating power, legitimacy, and covenantal blessing. |
| Morphological Notes | Adjective used substantively; genitive neuter plural (Gr,NS,,,,GNP,). The genitive expresses possession, source, or association; neuter plural implies unspecified "things" or realities characterized as being on the right side. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective δεξιός denotes what is on the right side, often with the connotation of the right hand as the place of strength or favor. The genitive neuter plural form (GNP) is reflected by "of the right-hand (things)," preserving both the genitive case ("of") and the neuter plural sense ("things"). |
