SIBI-P1 Translation G2147-38
having found
| Morphological Notes | Verb, aorist active participle, nominative masculine plural (Gr,V,PAA,NMP): completed action, active voice, functioning adjectivally or adverbially, referring to masculine plural subjects. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active participle denotes a completed act of finding prior to or accompanying the main verb. "Having found" preserves the root sense of discovery or obtaining while reflecting the masculine nominative plural participial form. |
