Jason
| Morphological Notes | Noun, accusative masculine singular (Gr,N,,,,,AMS); proper name functioning as direct object form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term is a masculine singular accusative proper noun. Although etymologically meaning "healer," its Koine usage is limited to a personal name, so it is rendered as "Jason," preserving its identity while acknowledging its healing-derived root. |
