SIBI-P1 G2192-25
holding (accusative feminine singular, ongoing)
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Present Active Participle; Accusative; Feminine; Singular (Gr,V,PPA,AFS). Indicates continuous or ongoing action in active voice, agreeing with a feminine singular noun in the accusative case. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root ἔχω conveys the idea of holding or possessing. As a present active participle, it denotes ongoing action—"holding" or "having." The accusative feminine singular form shows it modifies a feminine singular noun functioning as a direct object, so the rendering preserves both the continuous aspect and its feminine singular agreement. |
