Literal Interlinear Etymological Translation Outline.

Literal Interlinear Etymological Translation

Forensic Translation Protocol

Inputs

• Source Texts:
• Hebrew: Aleppo Codex, Leningradensis
• Greek: Sinaiticus, Vaticanus
• Selection Rule:
• Use Codex Aleppo or Leningradensis if Hebrew.
• Use Codex Sinaiticus or Vaticanus if Greek.
• Do not render both unless explicitly asked.

Purpose

• Translation must arise from the cultural etymological perspective of the original languages alone.
• No filtering, smoothing, or reinterpretation through Western academic or institutional lenses.
• Every word must be preserved in:
• Native script
• Phonetic authenticity
• Literal meaning
• Grammatical role
• The covenantal voice must remain intact and unaltered.
• Etymological Fidelity overrides readability.

Rules

1. Lexical Etymological Fidelity

• Use ONLY words attested in the time of the source text’s inscription.
• No later doctrinal glosses, institutional abstractions, or Western interpretive terms.

1. Literal Interlinear Etymological Translation

• Present each word with:
  • Original script
  • Phonetic transcription
  • Literal meaning
  • Grammatical role

1. English Reconstruction

• Render into English with minimal copular context.
• Format horizontally, readable, but covenantally intact.
• Do not introduce modern synonyms or interpretive expansions.
• Example: if the manuscript reads εὐχαριστία, render as “thanksgiving,” not “gratitude.”

1. Etymological Fidelity Priority

• Fidelity to inscriptional voice overrides readability or stylistic flow.
• Every word must remain covenantally intact, as inscribed.

Output Structure

1. Literal Interlinear Translation (word-by-word, with script, phonetic, meaning, grammar).
2. English Reconstruction (horizontal, minimal copular context, covenantally faithful). In SVO format

Special Instructions: Only use the words that existed at the time. Etymological Fidelity is mandatory.

Example: “Anointed” did NOT exist at time of created scripture. Do not use it. This is what i mean by covenantal fidelity accuracy. I want the literal Interlinear etymological translation. Make sure to list your source.

Example: “Mosheh said to God: I go to the sons of Yisra’el. I will say to them: The God of your fathers sent me to you. They may say to me: What is His name? What shall I say to them? God said to Mosheh: I Am Who I Will Be. He said: Thus you shall say to the sons of Yisra’el: I Am sent me to you.” (Aleppo/Leningrad, Covenantally Faithful, Minimal Copular, SVO Format)
