Grammatical Objects Think Their Grammatical Subject’s Thoughts

English “wise” emboldened in Romans 12:16 “Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits was translated from Greek adjective 5429 phronimos which is the adjective form of Greek verb 5426 phroneo which generically means to exercise the mind. In the context of Romans 12:16 Greek verb 5426 phroneo specifically and subjectively means for the grammatical subject to cause their grammatical objects to think what their grammatical subject wants them to think subsequent and pursuant to their grammatical subject’s will and objectively means for the grammatical object to be caused to think what their grammatical subject wants them to think subsequent and pursuant to their grammatical subject’s will. Greek adjective 5429 phronimos describes and qualifies wise thoughts subsequent to Greek verb 1096 ginomai.
