the body
Body – the physical body of a living being, whether human or animal; more generally, the material or outward, tangible aspect of a person or creature. In extended usage, can signify the collective body (e.g., a corporation, a group of people viewed as a unified entity) or, in some specialized contexts, a corpse. Seldom, in idiomatic uses, may refer to the whole self, or a tangible object distinct from immaterial aspects.

to the body
| Morphological Notes | Noun, dative singular, neuter (Gr,N,,,,,DNS). |
| Rendering Rationale | The lemma σῶμα denotes the physical body or tangible self. The dative singular form σώματι is rendered "to the body," preserving the singular neuter noun and reflecting typical dative force (to/for/in the body) without imposing contextual nuance. |
