in the memorial-place
| Root | μνημεῖον (mnēmeion) |
| Core Meanings | memorial, remembrance-place, tomb, grave, monument |
| Semantic Range | grave, tomb, sepulchre, burial chamber, monument, memorial structure marking the dead |
| Conceptual Significance | In the biblical context, a μνημεῖον is not merely a burial site but a place of remembrance, preserving the memory of the deceased. In resurrection narratives, its role as a “memorial-place” heightens the theological contrast between death’s memorial and the living Messiah who overcomes it. |
| Morphological Notes | Gr,N,,,,,DNS — noun, dative case, neuter gender, singular number. The dative commonly expresses location (“in”), instrument, or association depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from μνήμη (“memory, remembrance”), so rendering it as “memorial-place” preserves the root concept of remembrance rather than only the functional idea of burial. The dative neuter singular form (μνημείῳ) is reflected by the locative sense “in,” conveying the typical force of the Greek dative case in context. |
