of the royal treasury
| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine, singular, genitive case (Gr,N,,,,,GFS) — denotes possession or relation. |
| Rendering Rationale | The genitive singular form indicates possession or association, rendered with "of." "Royal treasury" preserves the institutional sense of a state or royal depository inherent in γάζα rather than a generic "treasure." |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
treasury

| Rationale | Simplified 'of the royal treasury' to 'treasury' because the chain of prepositional/genitive relationships forms 'over all the treasury,' matching English idiom and the root meaning. |
