From the root: ὈΝΤΑΝΩΘΕΣΤΕΡΟΝ
Part of Speech: Unknown
Explanation: It's not clear what this word means. It appears to be a highly unusual or possibly garbled form, as it does not correspond to any known Koine Greek word or standard inflectional pattern. The ending '-τερον' typically indicates a comparative adjective or adverb (e.g., 'more X' or 'more X-ly'), but the root 'ὈΝΤΑΝΩΘΕΣ-' is not recognizable. It is highly probable that this is a misspelling, a scribal error, or a very rare hapax legomenon (a word appearing only once) that has not been adequately documented. Without further context or correction, its meaning cannot be determined.
