Translations: unknown, possibly tearing, rending, flaying
From the root: ΔΙΡΑΩ
Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: This word, "ΔΙΡΑΝΤΕΣ" (DIRANTES), appears to be a present active participle, masculine or feminine, nominative or accusative plural, from a verb like *διράω* (diraō). However, the verb *διράω* is not a recognized word in Koine Greek or classical Greek lexicons. It is highly probable that this word is a misspelling or a garbled form of another word. If it were a legitimate word, based on its form, it would describe an action being performed by multiple subjects, such as "those who are tearing" or "those who are flaying." Given its absence from standard lexicons, its meaning and usage are uncertain.
