SIBI-P1 G3563-02

of the knowing-mind

Morphological NotesNoun, genitive, masculine, singular (Gr,N,,,,,GMS). The form νοός/νοὸς is the genitive singular of νοῦς, indicating possession, source, or description.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering preserves the genitive singular form by using "of," reflecting possession or source. "Knowing-mind" highlights the root connection to perception and cognition (related conceptually to γινώσκω, "to know"), emphasizing the intellect as the faculty of understanding rather than mere emotion.
