SIBI-P1 Translation G1684-05
having stepped into
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist active participle; nominative masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active participle denotes a completed action viewed as a whole, while the root sense of ἐμβαίνω is "to step into." "Having stepped into" preserves both the completed aspect and the vivid, physical movement inherent in the root. |
