From the root: ΠΕΜΠΩ, ἈΓΓΕΛΟΣ

Part of Speech: Verb, Noun

Explanation: This is a compound phrase formed by the verb 'ἘΠΕΜΠΕΝ' (epempen) and the noun 'ἈΓΓΕΛΟΥΣ' (angelous). 'ἘΠΕΜΠΕΝ' is the third person singular imperfect active indicative of the verb 'πέμπω' (pempo), meaning 'to send.' It describes an ongoing or repeated action in the past, so it translates to 'he/she/it was sending.' 'ἈΓΓΕΛΟΥΣ' is the accusative plural of the noun 'ἄγγελος' (angelos), meaning 'messenger' or 'angel.' In this context, it refers to human messengers. Therefore, the combined phrase means 'he/she/it was sending messengers.'

Inflection: Verb: Third Person Singular, Imperfect Active Indicative; Noun: Accusative Plural, Masculine
