Translations: unknown
From the root: ΣΩΦΡΩΝ
Part of Speech: Unknown
Explanation: The word "ΣΩΦ" is not a complete word in Koine Greek. It appears to be a truncation or a prefix of a word like "ΣΩΦΡΩΝ" (sōphrōn, meaning 'sound-minded, self-controlled') or "ΣΩΦΡΟΣΥΝΗ" (sōphrosynē, meaning 'sound-mindedness, self-control'). Based on the provided examples, it is highly likely that "ΣΩΦ" is an incomplete form of "ΣΩΦΡΟΣΥΝΗ" or a related word. It is not clear what this truncated form would mean on its own.
