he rescued for himself
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense, middle voice, indicative mood, 3rd person singular — denotes a completed act of rescuing performed with self-interest or personal involvement. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist indicative conveys a simple, completed action in past time, rendered "he rescued." The middle voice is reflected with "for himself," preserving the reflexive or self-involved nuance inherent in ῥύομαι. |
