SIBI-P1 G1124-04

the Writing (feminine singular; also: to/for the Writing in dative form)

Morphological NotesNoun, feminine, singular; attested here in nominative feminine singular (NFS) and dative feminine singular (DFS). As a first-declension feminine noun, the nominative functions as subject, while the dative marks indirect object, means, or reference ("to/for/by the Writing").
Rendering RationaleThe noun γραφή derives from γράφω ("to write") and fundamentally means "a writing" or "written record." Rendering it as "the Writing" preserves the connection to the act of writing while reflecting its nominative feminine singular form; where it appears as dative feminine singular (Γραφῇ), it carries the sense "to/for the Writing."
