Furthermore, there is no known Koine Greek word "ΣΟΥΣΟΙΣ" that would undergo elision or crasis to form this. It is most likely a misspelling, a garbled text, or a very obscure proper noun that is not widely attested. Without further context or clarification, its meaning remains unknown.

Translations: rulers, leaders, princes, chief officials, magistrates

Notes: This word refers to those in positions of authority or power, such as rulers, leaders, or magistrates. It is used to describe individuals who hold a prominent or governing role within a community or system. In the provided context, it appears to refer to people who are in a state or condition, or who are present, rather than specifically 'rulers'.

If it is indeed 'ΑΡΧΟΝΤΑΣ' as a standalone word, it would mean 'rulers'.

G3739

Part of Speech: Relative Pronoun, Numeral

Sounds like: ON

Translations: whom, which, that, who, 120

Notes: This word, ΟΝ', can have two primary interpretations in Koine Greek. Most commonly, it represents an elision of the relative pronoun ὅν (hon), meaning 'whom,' 'which,' or 'that.' This form is typically the masculine singular accusative case, used to refer to a male person or thing that is the direct object of a verb. For example, 'the man whom you saw.' Less commonly, the apostrophe-like mark (keraia) can indicate a numeral, in which case ΟΝ' would represent the number 120 (Omicron = 70, Nu = 50). Given the provided examples, the elided relative pronoun meaning is much more likely.

Inflection: Masculine, Singular, Accusative (for the relative pronoun); Does not inflect (for the numeral)

Synonyms: ΟϹΤΙϹ, ΟϹΟϹ

Etymology: The relative pronoun ὅς (hos) comes from Proto-Indo-European. The numeral interpretation uses the Greek alphabetic numeral system.
