a lame one (masculine singular, accusative)

Morphological NotesAdjective used substantivally from lemma χωλός. Forms attested here include accusative masculine singular (AMS), genitive masculine plural (GMP), and nominative neuter singular (NNS). In the cited form χωλόν/χωλὸν it is accusative masculine singular, functioning as a direct object.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering "lame one" preserves the adjectival force of χωλός as describing one who is impaired in walking, while treating it substantivally as often used in Greek. The accusative masculine singular form (AMS) is reflected by indicating it as a single male direct object.
