having come to know
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist active participle; nominative masculine plural (Gr,V,PAA,NMP); denotes completed action, functioning adjectivally or circumstantially. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist active participle denotes a completed act of coming to knowledge prior to the main verb. "Having come to know" reflects the ingressive sense of the aorist and preserves the participial, masculine plural nominative form. |
