he treated
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple past, completed action); active voice; indicative mood; 3rd person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active indicative, 3rd person singular, denotes a simple completed action in the past: "he treated." This rendering preserves the core sense of providing active care or medical attention without narrowing the meaning beyond the root’s service-oriented nuance. |
