SIBI-P1 G4521-04
the Sabbath-rest
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative case, neuter gender, singular number (ANS). The accusative marks it as the direct object or object of certain prepositions; neuter singular reflects the standard lexical form of σάββατον. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "Sabbath-rest" preserves the Hebrew-rooted concept of cessation and sacred rest embedded in σάββατον, rather than leaving it as a mere proper name. The morphology (Gr,N,,,,,ANS,) indicates accusative neuter singular, so the translation reflects a singular, concrete entity functioning as a direct object in context ("the Sabbath-rest"). |
