SIBI-P1 G4334-05
having come near (he, nominative masculine singular)
| Morphological Notes | Gr,V,PAA,NMS = verb, aorist active participle, nominative masculine singular (προσελθών). Other attested forms include Gr,V,IAA3,,P = imperfect active indicative, 3rd person plural ("they were coming near"). The verb is middle/deponent in lexical form but carries active meaning. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering "having come near" reflects the aorist active participle form, expressing a completed action prior to the main verb. "Come near" preserves the directional force of πρός (toward) joined with ἔρχομαι (to come), maintaining the root sense of movement toward someone or something. |
