Lemmaθανατόω
Strong'sG2289

SIBI-P1 G2289-08

you (plural) were being put-to-death

Rootθανατόω (thanatoō)
Core Meaningsto put to death, to make dead, to cause death, to mortify
Semantic Rangeto execute, to cause physical death, to render powerless, to mortify or put to death metaphorically (e.g., sinful practices), to subject to deadly treatment
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical usage, θανατόω can refer both to literal execution and to the theological concept of "putting to death" sinful deeds or the flesh. It highlights the seriousness of judgment and the transformative call to render sin lifeless within covenant faithfulness.
Morphological NotesVerb; imperfect tense, passive voice, indicative mood, second person plural (Gr,V,IPA2,,P,). The imperfect denotes ongoing or repeated past action; passive voice indicates the subject receives the action.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering preserves the root sense "to make dead/put to death" from θανατόω (derived from θάνατος, death). The imperfect passive indicative form is reflected by "were being," indicating ongoing past action received by the subject, and the second person plural is expressed by "you (plural)."
