SIBI-P1 Translation G1803-01

out of

Morphological NotesPreposition governing the genitive case; denotes origin, source, separation, or point of departure.
Rendering RationaleThe primary spatial and figurative force of ἐκ is emergence or origin from within a source. Rendering it as "out of" preserves its core sense of movement or derivation from an interior or originating point, consistent with its use governing the genitive.

six

Same as P1No — adjusted for context
RationaleP1 'out of' is incorrect here; ἓξ is the cardinal number 'six' referring to 'six days.' Must use the numeric sense.
P1 FlagWrong root/Strong's—should be 'six', not 'out of'.
