SIBI-P1 G2476-27

the one having stood

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist active participle; nominative masculine singular (Gr,V,PAA,NMS). The aorist participle denotes action completed prior to or accompanying the main verb, describing a masculine singular subject.
Rendering RationaleThe aorist active participle nominative masculine singular is rendered "the one having stood" to reflect the completed aspect of the aorist (a simple, whole action), the active voice, and its masculine singular nominative form. This preserves the core idea of ἵστημι as standing or taking a stand, while making explicit that it describes a male subject who has performed the action.
