of women
| Morphological Notes | Noun, genitive plural, feminine (Gr,N,,,,,GFP) |
| Rendering Rationale | The genitive plural form γυναικῶν denotes possession, relation, or source and is best rendered "of women" in a root-faithful way. Since marital status is not inherent in the form itself, the broader sense "women" preserves the core meaning without contextual narrowing. |
