| Root | τριάκοντα (triakonta) |
| Core Meanings | thirty, three tens, tri-decade number |
| Semantic Range | the cardinal number thirty; a literal quantity of three tens; a counted group of thirty persons, items, or measures. |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical literature, thirty can function as a concrete economic or symbolic figure (e.g., price of a slave, years of maturity, or counted sums), often marking completeness within a defined social or covenantal framework. |
| Morphological Notes | Numeral (indeclinable form) functioning as accusative neuter plural (ANP) in these occurrences; used to quantify neuter plural nouns, often as a direct object or measure. UGNT codes: Gr,NS/EN,,,,ANP, = Greek numeral, accusative neuter plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the root sense of "three tens" (from τρεῖς, three) while reflecting its accusative neuter plural function (ANP), which typically modifies or counts neuter plural nouns understood as "things." The parenthetical "things" makes explicit the grammatical force of the accusative neuter plural as a counted object. |
