SIBI-P1 Translation G5526-08
you were fully fed
| Morphological Notes | Verb, aorist passive indicative, 2nd person plural — completed action in past time, received by the subjects ("you" plural). |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist passive indicative, second person plural, indicates a completed action received by the subjects: they were acted upon. "Fully fed" preserves the root sense of being supplied with food to satisfaction, reflecting the verb’s origin in providing fodder and its broader sense of being satisfied to abundance. |
