SIBI-P1 Translation G3708-24
let us see
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/completed aspect), active voice, subjunctive mood, first person plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active subjunctive, first person plural, naturally conveys a hortatory sense, expressing a simple or complete act of seeing: "let us see." The rendering preserves the primary root meaning of physical sight while allowing for broader perception inherent in ὁράω. |
