SIBI-P1 Translation G2612-01
the utterly evident
| Morphological Notes | Adjective functioning substantively; nominative, neuter, singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The rendering captures the intensive force of κατά combined with δῆλος, expressing something manifest beyond doubt. The neuter nominative singular substantive adjective is reflected by "the" plus an abstract quality, treating it as a standalone evident reality. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
manifest
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | 'the utterly evident' in P1 is overly elaborate and misrepresents the Greek adjective used here as a predicate. 'Manifest' accurately conveys 'κατάδηλόν' as 'it is evident/manifest,' following Greek adjectival usage. |
