| Morphological Notes | Cardinal numeral, genitive plural (masculine form; also used for feminine and neuter by agreement), indicating relation or possession. |
| Rendering Rationale | The genitive plural form τριῶν denotes possession, source, or relation and is best rendered "of three," preserving the cardinal quantity and the genitive case. It reflects the basic numerical sense without contextual expansion. |
