SIBI-P1 G2398-07

to/for their own (ones/things)

Rootἴδιος (ídios)
Core Meaningsone’s own, belonging to oneself, private, distinct, proper
Semantic Rangebelonging to oneself, one’s own people, one’s own things, private property, personal matters, distinct or separate from others
Conceptual SignificanceIn the biblical text, ἴδιος often marks covenantal or relational belonging—one’s own household, people, or possessions—highlighting themes of identity, responsibility, and relational loyalty (e.g., coming to one’s own, caring for one’s own).
Morphological NotesAdjective, dative plural masculine or dative plural neuter (Gr,EF,,,,DMP/DNP). Functions attributively or substantivally; the dative expresses indirect object, association, or sphere (“to/for/in one’s own”).
Rendering RationaleThe adjective ἴδιος denotes what belongs uniquely to oneself or one’s own circle. The form ἰδίοις is dative plural (masculine or neuter), so the rendering reflects the dative sense (“to/for”) and the plural idea of “own ones” or “own things,” preserving both possession and grammatical number.
