From the root: ΕΡΓΑΖΟΜΑΙ, ΣΤΕΡΕΟΣ
Part of Speech: Participle, Adjective
Explanation: This is a compound word formed from the genitive plural participle of the verb 'ἐργάζομαι' (ergazomai), meaning 'to work' or 'to labor', and the adjective 'στερεός' (stereos), meaning 'solid' or 'firm'. The combined word describes the action of 'those who are working in a solid or firm manner' or 'those who are working on something solid/firm'. It implies diligent, stable, or foundational work.
Inflection: Present, Middle/Passive, Genitive, Plural, Masculine/Neuter (for ἘΡΓΑΖΟΜΕΝΩΝ); Nominative/Accusative, Singular, Neuter (for ΣΤΕΡΕΟΝ, if it's acting as a noun or adverbial accusative), or Nominative/Accusative, Plural, Neuter (if it's modifying a plural noun). Given the context of the first part, it most likely functions as 'of those working [something] solid' or 'of those working [in a] solid [way]'.
