of the memorial-place
| Root | μνημεῖον (mnēmeion) |
| Core Meanings | memorial, remembrance-place, monument, tomb |
| Semantic Range | grave, tomb, sepulchre, burial chamber, monument erected for remembrance |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical usage, μνημεῖον emphasizes not merely a burial site but a place that preserves memory. It is especially significant in resurrection narratives, where the "memorial-place" becomes the setting in which death and remembrance are confronted and transformed. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun, genitive singular, neuter (Gr,N,,,,,GNS,). The genitive case typically denotes possession, source, or association: "of the memorial-place." |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "memorial-place" preserves the connection to μνήμη (memory, remembrance), highlighting that a tomb is fundamentally a place of remembrance. The genitive singular form is reflected by "of the," indicating possession or association, and the singular neuter noun is represented as a single memorial site. |
