- ripen; bring to maturity
Meaning
Physis is the releaser of things that are ripening at X.17. The genitive participle πεπαινομένων depends on λύτειρα and leaves the ripening things unnamed. Its opening πεπ- belongs to the verb’s present stem, so the form describes ripening in progress rather than automatically asserting completed maturation.
