to a brother
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine, singular, dative (Gr,N,,,,,DMS): indicating a male sibling or associate as indirect object or recipient. |
| Rendering Rationale | The dative masculine singular form ἀδελφῷ denotes relation or indirect object, naturally rendered in English with “to” or “for.” “Brother” preserves the root sense of one born from the same womb, while remaining open to its extended communal sense. |
