SIBI-P1 Translation G1554-02

gave out for himself

Morphological NotesVerb; aorist tense (simple completed action), middle voice (self-involved or for one’s own interest), indicative mood (statement of fact), 3rd person singular.
Rendering RationaleThe aorist indicative conveys a simple completed act in past time, while the middle voice reflects action done with reference to oneself or in one’s own interest. "Gave out" preserves the core sense of ἐκ- (out) + δίδωμι (give), and "for himself" expresses the middle voice nuance.
