SIBI-P1 Translation G15695-01

they were marveling greatly

Morphological NotesVerb; imperfect tense (ongoing past action), active voice, indicative mood, 3rd person plural. From ἐκ (intensive prefix) + θαυμάζω (to marvel).
Rendering RationaleThe verb ἐκθαυμάζω intensifies θαυμάζω ("to marvel") with the prefix ἐκ, conveying heightened or overwhelming astonishment. The imperfect active indicative, third person plural, is reflected by "they were marveling," expressing continuous or ongoing past action, while "greatly" preserves the intensifying force of the prefix.
