SIBI-P1 Translation G240-01
to one another
| Morphological Notes | Reciprocal pronoun; dative plural (masculine/neuter); from ἀλλήλων, reduplicated form of ἄλλος; indicates mutual relationship among plural participants. |
| Rendering Rationale | The dative plural form expresses reciprocal action directed among members of a group. "To one another" preserves the mutual sense of the reduplicated ἄλλ- root and reflects the dative case indicating direction or relation. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
against one another
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | Adjusted from 'to one another' to 'against one another' since in the legal context, the reciprocal action is accusatory rather than mutual assistance. |
