the pressing-pressure
| Morphological Notes | Gr,N,,,,,NFS — noun, nominative case, feminine gender, singular number. Abstract feminine noun formed from the verb θλίβω (to press, squeeze). |
| Rendering Rationale | θλῖψις derives from θλίβω, "to press" or "to squeeze," so "pressing-pressure" preserves the concrete root image of compression that underlies its metaphorical uses. The nominative feminine singular form is reflected as a singular abstract noun, suitable for a subject or predicate nominative in context. |
