Morphological NotesAdjective, nominative masculine singular (Gr,NP,,,,NMS); describing a masculine singular subject in a state of fear.
Rendering RationaleThe compound ἐν (in) + φόβος (fear) literally denotes being ‘in fear’ or ‘full of fear.’ "Filled with fear" preserves this root sense while functioning naturally as a nominative masculine singular predicate adjective.
