the final things
| Morphological Notes | Substantive adjective; neuter nominative plural (also attested as neuter accusative plural in other occurrences); superlative form from ἔσχ-. |
| Rendering Rationale | As a neuter nominative plural substantive adjective, it denotes "the things that are last or extreme." "The final things" preserves the superlative force (uttermost, ultimate) while reflecting the plural neuter form. |
