eleven (masculine plural count)
| Root | ἕνδεκα (hendeka) |
| Core Meanings | eleven, one-and-ten, numerical count beyond ten |
| Semantic Range | the number eleven; a group consisting of eleven persons or items; specifically the eleven disciples after Judas’ departure |
| Conceptual Significance | In the New Testament, "the Eleven" becomes a technical designation for the remaining apostles after Judas Iscariot’s betrayal and death, marking a transitional moment in apostolic witness and communal restoration prior to the selection of Matthias. |
| Morphological Notes | Cardinal numeral; indeclinable in form. Parsed in contexts as masculine plural (nominative, accusative, dative, genitive) agreeing with masculine plural referents. Functions adjectivally to quantify plural nouns. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term literally combines "one" (εἷς) and "ten" (δέκα), meaning "one-and-ten." As an indeclinable cardinal numeral modifying masculine plural nouns in the cited forms, the rendering preserves its counting function and plural reference while reflecting its grammatical agreement in masculine plural contexts. |
