SIBI-P1 Translation G572-02
in singleness
| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine, singular, dative (Gr,N,,,,,DFS): denotes a quality or state expressed in the dative case. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering reflects the core idea of undivided simplicity inherent in ἁπλότης while preserving the dative singular form through the prepositional phrase "in singleness." It maintains the abstract quality denoted by the -της suffix. |
