G0758

Part of Speech: Noun

Sounds like: AR-khon-tas

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'. However, the primary meaning of the root word is 'ruler'. Given the context, it seems to be a participle of the verb 'υπάρχω' (to be, to exist, to be present), which would be 'υπάρχοντας'. If it is indeed 'ΑΡΧΟΝΤΑΣ' as a standalone word, it would mean 'rulers'. However, the example usage strongly suggests it's part of 'ΥΠΑΡΧΟΝΤΑΣ', which is a present active participle, accusative plural, meaning 'being' or 'existing'. If the input 'ΑΡΧΟΝΤΑΣ' is a typo for 'ΥΠΑΡΧΟΝΤΑΣ', then it means 'those who are' or 'being'. If it is truly 'ΑΡΧΟΝΤΑΣ', it means 'rulers'. Given the context, it is highly probable that 'ΑΡΧΟΝΤΑΣ' is a misspelling or a fragment of 'ΥΠΑΡΧΟΝΤΑΣ'.
