SIBI-P1 G5578-05

of false-prophets

Morphological NotesNoun, genitive masculine plural (Gr,N,,,,,GMP). The genitive case indicates possession, source, or association; plural denotes more than one; masculine aligns with the grammatical gender of προφήτης.
Rendering RationaleThe compound joins ψευδο- (false, lying) with προφήτης (prophet, one who speaks forth). Rendering it as “false-prophets” preserves the compound structure and core meaning. The genitive masculine plural form is reflected by “of false-prophets,” marking possession or association in the plural.
