SIBI-P1 G1139-01
the one having-been-demonized (masculine singular)
| Root | δαιμονίζομαι (daimonizomai) |
| Core Meanings | to be under the influence of a daimon, to be demonized, to be afflicted by a spirit-being |
| Semantic Range | to be possessed by a demon, to be afflicted or tormented by an unclean spirit, to be under spiritual oppression or influence |
| Conceptual Significance | In the Gospels, this term reflects the Second Temple Jewish worldview of personal spirit-beings causing affliction. It highlights the authority of Yeshua over hostile spiritual powers and portrays deliverance as liberation from oppressive supernatural influence. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, aorist passive participle, nominative masculine singular (substantival use). Indicates a completed action received by the subject: a man who has been acted upon by a daimon. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root sense of δαίμων (a spirit-being) by using "demonized," reflecting the verb’s derivation. "Having-been" conveys the aorist passive participle’s completed aspect and passive voice, while "the one" reflects its nominative masculine singular participial form functioning substantivally. |
