SIBI-P1 G837-04
the things being-grown
| Root | αὐξάνω (auxanō) |
| Core Meanings | to grow, increase, enlarge, cause to grow, bring increase |
| Semantic Range | to grow physically, to increase in number or influence, to mature, to cause to grow, to expand or enlarge (literal or figurative) |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical usage, growth often signifies divine blessing, spiritual maturation, or the expansion of God’s purposes. The passive nuance can imply growth effected by God, highlighting dependence on divine agency for true increase. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, present passive participle, nominative neuter plural (Gr,V,PPP,NNP). Denotes ongoing action in which the subject (neuter plural) is being caused to grow or increase. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root sense of growth and increase inherent in αὐξάνω. The present passive participle (PPP) is reflected by "being-grown," indicating ongoing action received, and the nominative neuter plural form is conveyed by "the things." |
