SIBI-P1 Translation G2334-15
observing attentively
| Morphological Notes | Verb, present active participle, nominative masculine singular (Gr,V,PPA,NMS): ongoing active observing by a masculine singular subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The present active participle nominative masculine singular denotes an ongoing action performed by a male subject. "Observing attentively" preserves the root sense of engaged, evaluative watching inherent in θεωρέω rather than mere seeing. |
