SIBI-P1 Translation G2719-01
Devour completely
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/complete action), active voice, imperative mood; 2nd person singular — a direct command to one person. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active imperative, 2nd singular, calls for a decisive, complete act. "Devour completely" reflects the intensified force of κατά (down, thoroughly) joined to ἐσθίω (to eat), conveying total consumption. |
