SIBI-P1 G1535-01

whether indeed

Morphological NotesIndeclinable disjunctive particle/conjunction (Gr,DO; Gr,CO). Formed from εἰ (if) + τε (and/indeed). It does not inflect for tense, voice, mood, case, gender, or number and serves to link clauses conditionally or disjunctively.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering "whether indeed" preserves the compound force of εἰ ("if") and τε (an enclitic connective meaning "and/indeed"), maintaining both its conditional and connective nuance. As an indeclinable disjunctive conjunction (Gr,DO / Gr,CO), it carries no tense, voice, case, gender, or number, but functions to introduce conditional or alternative clauses.
