Re: Masculine or Feminine?
If a person was male then a noun referring to him would be masculine so would a pronoun.
Also too often the gender might change the meaning a little or allow for slightly different meanings, though I have found this is not always consistant
For example the greek words for one are Hen, Heis and Mia....Neuter, Masculine and Feminine..
Trinitarians claim Hen means one in unity, which this is allowable it is not always true that Hen means a unity but can and has been used to mean one singularly....in our language we have the same thing..One can mean one in number but it can also express a unity.
Heis generally is one in number but it has also been used to mean one in unity if I remember right. This argument by the Trinitarians is blown out of the water when one realizes when Jesus quotes the Shema he uses Heis instead of Hen...so he would have the Shema as "Hear Oh Israel, the LORD our GOD, the LORD is One in number"
