SIBI-P1 G3173-06
great (feminine singular, nominative/accusative)
| Root | μέγας (megas) |
| Core Meanings | great, large, mighty, important, weighty, intense |
| Semantic Range | physically large, numerous, intense, loud, powerful, important, eminent, severe, extraordinary |
| Conceptual Significance | μέγας frequently marks divine acts, signs, authority, or emotions as surpassing ordinary measure. It underscores magnitude—whether of power, fear, faith, or judgment—highlighting what is weighty or significant within the biblical narrative. |
| Morphological Notes | Adjective from μέγας; feminine singular form μεγάλη. Parsed as nominative feminine singular (NFS) or accusative feminine singular (NFS) depending on context; it agrees with a feminine singular noun in case, number, and gender. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective μέγας denotes largeness, greatness, or magnitude in size, degree, or importance. The form μεγάλη is feminine singular in either nominative or accusative case, so the rendering preserves its adjectival force while explicitly reflecting its feminine singular agreement and case ambiguity. |
