to the whole-body

Rootσῶμα (sōma)
Core Meaningsbody, physical frame, embodied whole, corporate body
Semantic Rangephysical body of a person or animal; corpse; bodily existence; the corporate body (community); metaphorical body such as the body of Messiah; the entirety of something as a unified whole
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical usage, σῶμα can denote the physical human body, emphasize embodied existence, or describe a corporate unity (e.g., the body of Messiah). It underscores the Hebraic view of human wholeness rather than a strict body–soul dualism, and serves as a key metaphor for communal identity and covenantal belonging.
Morphological NotesGr,N,,,,,DNS = noun, dative case, neuter gender, singular number. The dative may indicate location (in the body), instrumentality (by the body), or reference (with respect to the body) depending on context.
Rendering RationaleThe noun σῶμα denotes the body as a unified, whole entity. The form σώματι is dative singular neuter, which commonly expresses indirect object, sphere, means, or relation; rendering it "to the whole-body" preserves the dative sense while reflecting the concept of the body as an integrated whole.
