Translations: (to) servants, (to) ministers, (to) officers, to take up, to destroy, to kill, to do away with

From the root: ΥΠΗΡΕΤΗΣ, ἈΝΑΙΡΕΩ

Part of Speech: Noun, Verb

Explanation: This appears to be a compound word or a concatenation of two distinct Koine Greek words: 'ΥΠΗΡΕΤΑΙΣ' and 'ἈΝΕΛΕΙΝ'. 'ΥΠΗΡΕΤΑΙΣ' is the dative plural of the noun 'ΥΠΗΡΕΤΗΣ', meaning 'servant', 'minister', or 'officer'. It indicates the indirect object, so it translates as 'to servants' or 'for servants'. 'ἈΝΕΛΕΙΝ' is the aorist infinitive of the verb 'ἈΝΑΙΡΕΩ', meaning 'to take up', 'to destroy', 'to kill', or 'to do away with'. The combination suggests an action directed towards or involving servants, such as 'to kill the servants' or 'to take up with the servants'.

Inflection: ΥΠΗΡΕΤΑΙΣ: Dative, Plural, Masculine; ἈΝΕΛΕΙΝ: Aorist, Infinitive, Active
