SIBI-P1 Translation G5021-02
he appointed for himself
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple past), middle voice (self-involving/reflexive), indicative mood, 3rd person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist middle indicative denotes a completed act performed with self-interest or involvement. "Appointed for himself" preserves the core sense of arranging or assigning while reflecting the middle voice’s reflexive nuance. |
