SIBI-P1 G4103-10
a trustworthy-and-trusting one (nominative masculine singular)
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, nominative masculine singular (Gr,AA/NP,,,,NMS). Functions either attributively (“faithful man”) or substantivally (“the faithful one”) as a subject or predicate nominative. |
| Rendering Rationale | πιστός derives from πείθω (to persuade, to trust) and carries both the sense of being trustworthy (objective) and trusting/believing (subjective). The rendering preserves this dual sense while reflecting the nominative masculine singular form, which often functions substantivally as “the faithful one.” |
