SIBI-P1 G243-07
to/for another (masculine singular); another (neuter singular thing)
| Root | ἄλλος (allos) |
| Core Meanings | another, other, different, distinct one |
| Semantic Range | another of the same kind, a different one, someone else, something else, additional, distinct from what precedes |
| Conceptual Significance | ἄλλος marks distinction within a shared category, often highlighting diversity within unity (e.g., different persons, gifts, or responses). In theological contexts, it can distinguish persons or roles while maintaining continuity of kind, contributing to nuanced contrasts in teaching and narrative. |
| Morphological Notes | ἄλλῳ: relative/interrogative adjective used substantivally, dative masculine singular (Gr,RI,,,,DMS); ἄλλο: nominative neuter singular (Gr,RI,,,,NNS; also Gr,EF,,,,NNS). Functions adjectivally or substantivally depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering preserves the core contrastive sense of ἄλλος as “another of the same kind” or “a different one.” The dative masculine singular form (ἄλλῳ) is reflected by “to/for another (masculine singular),” while the nominative neuter singular form (ἄλλο) is rendered “another (neuter singular thing),” explicitly maintaining case, gender, and number distinctions. |
