Linguistic Gap Analysis — Titus

English → Dogri | Full Book (Titus 1–3) | Core Passage Anchor: Titus 2:11–3:8

This analysis extends the baseline Romans Language Package to the Titus curriculum. It does not restate baseline entries already settled (grace, faith, righteousness, justification, salvation, apostle, holy/holy_spirit, peace, law, election, exhort, messiah, jesus, god, father, glory) except where Titus introduces a new collision risk for an existing term. Its purpose is to surface, before glossary lock-in, (1) where Dogri simply lacks vocabulary for a Titus concept, (2) where Dogri has too much vocabulary — several crowded, doctrinally dangerous near-synonyms — requiring an explicit fence, (3) where transliteration is safer than paraphrase (and vice versa), and (4) a ranked list of the letter’s highest-risk translation ambiguities to prioritize in Phase 2 review routing.

Coverage confirmation: All three chapters of Titus have been reviewed in full for this analysis — 1:1–16 (salutation, elder qualifications, false-teacher warning), 2:1–15 (household instructions, core-passage opening at 2:11–15), 3:1–15 (submission to authority, core-passage close at 3:1–8, divisive-controversy warning, closing greetings/proper names). No chapter is treated as out of scope. Titus 1:1–4 and 3:12–15 contribute comparatively few new doctrinal terms (epistolary framing and travel/greeting material) but are explicitly reviewed below in §7 rather than silently skipped.

1. Method

For each doctrine in the curriculum’s Bible_Doctrines list, plus doctrines carried over from the baseline that recur with new emphasis in Titus (Christology/Deity of Christ, Church as God’s People), this analysis asks three questions:

1. What Dogri vocabulary already exists for the concept, either from general usage, from the Punjabi/Hindi-adjacent religious lexicon, or from the Romans baseline?
2. What is structurally wrong with the nearest available term(s) — does it import a Duggar Hindu devotional framework (bhakti, mannat, avatar, shakti, moksha/rebirth), a ritual-purity framework, a Dogra-Rajput lineage/honor (izzat/vansh) framework, or simply flatten a distinction Paul is making?
3. What strategy resolves it — reuse a baseline term, coin a descriptive compound, transliterate, or fence an existing word with a translator note?

2. Doctrine Vocabulary Matrix

Doctrine	Core Greek Terms	Dogri Resources Available	Weaknesses / Collision Risk	Recommended Strategy	Risk Tier
Grace That Trains for Godly Living	χάρις, εὐσέβεια, ἀσέβεια, παιδεύω, σωφρονίζω, σώφρων	बिना कमाई दित्ती दया (baseline, reused); भक्ति (available, contaminated); तपस्या / साधना (available, contaminated); आपे उप्पर काबू	भक्ति imports the entire devotee-deity bhakti-marga exchange model (paradigmatically Vaishno Devi and Krishna-bhakti devotionalism); तपस्या/साधना import self-effort/merit-accumulation models. The verb παιδεύω especially risks being heard as “grace trains you the way a guru trains a disciple toward self-attained realization” rather than “grace itself is the active former of character.”	Coin परमेश्वर दा डर-अदब for godliness (avoids भक्ति root entirely); coin तालीम दिंदी (ऐ) for παιδεύω with grace kept as explicit grammatical subject in every clause; reuse आपे उप्पर काबू (वाला) for self-control, explicitly fenced against izzat/honor-management readings.	Critical
Qualifications for Elders	πρεσβύτερος, ἐπίσκοπος, ἀνέγκλητος, φιλόξενος, σώφρων, ὅσιος	Punjabi/Hindi आम community-elder vocabulary (बड्डा, मुखिया — available but ambiguous); पुजारी (available, wrong register)	Dogra Rajput culture’s own leadership vocabulary is heavily hereditary/lineage-coded (headman/clan-elder by birth or seniority), risking a reading of the church office as inherited status rather than character-qualified appointment. पुजारी imports a ritual-mediator role foreign to the pastoral-oversight sense of ἐπίσκοπος.	Use कलीसिया दा बड्डा (built on baseline कलीसिया) for the office, explicitly distinguished in teaching notes from hereditary clan-elder status; निगरान for ἐπίσκοπος to keep the functional “one who watches over” sense without priestly overtones; keep बड्डी उमर दा मरद/तीविं (age-elder) visibly distinct in form from the office term.	High
Sound Doctrine and Good Works	ὑγιαίνουσα διδασκαλία, διδασκαλία, ἐλέγχω, καλὰ/ἀγαθὰ ἔργα, ἀδόκιμος, ὠφέλιμος	खरी खबर root (baseline, reusable morpheme); पुण्य (available, contaminated); धार्मिक कम्म (available, ambiguous — could read as ritual religious observance)	The most acute crowding risk in the whole letter: “good works” sits directly beside (a) पुण्य, merit that accrues spiritual credit, and (b) the Vaishno Devi mannat economy, where an act (vow, offering, pilgrimage) purchases a boon. Titus repeatedly demands works be taught as fruit, never root, of salvation (3:5 vs. 3:8/3:14) — a distinction that has no automatic lexical marker in Dogri and must be carried by explicit clause structure and teaching notes at every occurrence.	Coin नेक कम्म (a morally neutral, non-ritual “good/upright deed” register) rather than धार्मिक कम्म; build खरी सिखलाई on the baseline’s खरी morpheme for cross-document consistency; require a standing fruit-not-root translator note wherever नेक कम्म appears near grace/salvation vocabulary.	Critical
Salvation by Grace not Works	σωτηρία, σῴζω, σωτήρ, χάρις, ἔλεος, χρηστότης, φιλανθρωπία, δικαιοσύνη, λυτρόω	उद्धार, बिना कमाई दित्ती दया, धरमीपन (all baseline, reused); दया (available, needs sense-narrowing); करुणा (available, contaminated); मुक्ति (available, forbidden)	Titus 3:4–7 is the single densest concentration of salvation vocabulary in the curriculum, stacking σωτήρ, χρηστότης, φιλανθρωπία, ἔλεος, and χάρις in three verses. Each near-synonym must remain doctrinally distinguishable in Dogri or the passage collapses into a single vague “God is nice” statement, losing Paul’s careful denial of works (3:5a) as ground. करुणा risks reading as generic, impersonal compassion detached from a personal covenant God.	Reuse उद्धार and बिना कमाई दित्ती दया exactly; coin उद्धार करनहार for σωτήρ (applied identically to Father and Son across all six occurrences); assign दया (not करुणा) to ἔλεος, भलाई to χρηστότης, and मनुक्खां आस्तै प्यार to φιλανθρωπία as three distinct, non-interchangeable entries.	Critical
Regeneration by the Holy Spirit	παλιγγενεσία, ἀνακαίνωσις, λουτρόν, ἐκχέω, πνεῦμα ἅγιον	पुनर्जन्म (available, forbidden); आवागमन (available, forbidden); पवित्तर आत्मा (baseline, reused); कोई सिद्ध देशी शब्द नहीं (no settled native equivalent exists)	This is the single largest true vocabulary gap in the curriculum. Dogri (like Hindi/Punjabi) has abundant, well-established, religiously load-bearing vocabulary for cyclical rebirth (पुनर्जन्म, आवागमन) but genuinely lacks any existing term for a one-time, non-cyclical “again-birth.” Any translator defaulting to the nearest lexical neighbor will select exactly the wrong concept.	No existing word may be used; a purpose-built descriptive compound is mandatory: पवित्तर आत्मा दुआरा नमां जीवन, deliberately built on जीवन (“life”) rather than जनम (“birth”) to sever the lexical link to the rebirth-cycle word family entirely. Pair with आत्मा दुआरा नमां बनाई जाणा for ἀνακαίνωσις as one Spirit-wrought reality, not two doctrines.	Critical — highest priority in curriculum
Submission to Authority	ὑποτάσσω, ἀνυπότακτος, ἀρχή/ἐξουσία, πραΰτης	अधीन रौह्ना (coined, needed); इज्जत-वास्ते फरमानबरदारी (available, contaminated)	Dogra Rajput izzat culture supplies an immediately available, fluent-sounding submission vocabulary rooted in honor-preservation and hierarchical family/clan deference. That vocabulary is a false friend: Titus grounds ὑποτάσσω’s three occurrences (2:5 wives, 2:9 slaves, 3:1 citizens) in gospel-shaped voluntary gentleness, not honor-management or fear of shame.	Fix a single headword, अधीन रौह्ना, applied identically at all three occurrences; explicitly fence off izzat-preservation framing in translator notes; keep राज-अधिकारी (3:1) strictly civil-governmental, never extended to temple/priestly authority structures.	High
Avoiding Divisive Controversies	αἱρετικὸς ἄνθρωπος, μωραὶ ζητήσεις, γενεαλογία, νομικός	बंस-परमपरा (available — but this is precisely the positive, high-value Dogra Rajput lineage-consciousness vocabulary elsewhere in this curriculum’s cultural frame)	The sharpest internal-consistency risk in Titus: 3:9’s caution against unprofitable “genealogies” sits in obvious tension with the baseline’s warmly positive treatment of Davidic lineage (seed_of_david, davidic_covenant) and with Dogra Rajput culture’s own vansh-consciousness, which this curriculum elsewhere treats respectfully. A careless rendering could be heard as “the Bible devalues lineage/ancestry,” exactly backwards.	Use बंस-परमपरा दी गल्लां but require a mandatory cross-reference translator note distinguishing unprofitable speculative genealogical disputation (3:9) from theologically load-bearing Davidic lineage (elsewhere); apply फूट पाने वाला मनुक्ख narrowly to a proven, repeated pattern after warning, never to an isolated disagreement or an honest question raised in review.	High
Deity of Christ (carried over, intensified)	θεός applied to Christ, μέγας θεὸς καὶ σωτήρ, ἐπιφάνεια	परमेश्वर, यीशु, मसीह (all baseline, reused); अवतार (available, forbidden)	Titus 2:13 is grammatically one of the New Testament’s clearest single-referent “great God and Savior” statements. Any split rendering (treating “great God” and “Savior” as two persons) or any softening toward “a great, Savior-like being” would collapse the verse’s force — and Raghunath Mandir’s Rama-avatar devotional framework is the ready-made local category into which a softened Christ-figure could slide.	Render as one unbroken noun phrase, साढा महान परमेश्वर ते उद्धार करनहार यीशु मसीह, with a mandatory translator note on every occurrence preserving single-referent grammar; keep ἐπιφάνεια’s “appearing” (परगट होई/परगट होणा) explicitly framed as a single, unrepeatable historical event, never periodic avatar-style manifestation.	Critical
Church as God’s People (carried over)	λαὸς περιούσιος, ἐκκλησία (implicit)	कलीसिया (baseline, reused); खास/चुनिंदा प्रजा (available, needs framing)	περιούσιος (“treasured possession”) risks being heard through an inherited-birthright-elite lens given Dogra Rajput izzat/vansh culture, i.e., “God’s specially high-born people,” rather than a people constituted by grace across every lineage.	Coin परमेश्वर दी अपणी खास प्रजा with an explicit note that this identity is grace-constituted, not birthright-constituted.	High

3. Missing Vocabulary vs. Crowded Semantic Neighborhoods

Titus’s translation difficulty is bimodal: one doctrine (regeneration) suffers from a genuine vocabulary gap — Dogri simply has no non-cyclical “again-birth” word — while most of the rest of the letter suffers from the opposite problem, semantic overcrowding: multiple fluent, ready-to-hand Dogri/Hindi/Punjabi words compete for the same conceptual space, and the wrong one is often the more natural-sounding choice.

3.1 Genuine Gaps (no adequate existing term; coinage required)

Concept	Why no existing term works	Resolution
παλιγγενεσία (regeneration)	Every existing “again-birth” word in the regional lexicon (पुनर्जन्म, आवागमन) is bound to the rebirth-cycle cosmology. There is no neutral native term for a one-time non-cyclical rebirth.	Purpose-built compound severing the जनम root: पवित्तर आत्मा दुआरा नमां जीवन.
σωτήρ as a fixed, repeated title (6x)	Dogri has words for “one who rescues” (बचाने वाला) but none carries the theological weight of a fixed divine title used identically of both Father and Son.	Fixed compound उद्धार करनहार, built on the baseline’s उद्धार root for cross-document integrity.
λαὸς περιούσιος	No existing single term for “treasured-possession people” that isn’t already colored by lineage/caste-elite connotations.	Descriptive phrase परमेश्वर दी अपणी खास प्रजा with explicit grace-constituted framing note.
ἐπιφάνεια as inclusio-structuring term	”Appearing” language in the local religious lexicon defaults toward periodic deity manifestation (avatar, darshan-granting).	परगट होई / परगट होणा with a note fixing this as a single historical event.

3.2 Crowded Neighborhoods Requiring Explicit Fencing

Each cluster below lists the concepts competing for the same Dogri/Hindi/Punjabi word-space, the doctrinally correct occupant, and the term(s) that must be fenced off.

A. भक्ति-space (devotional reverence)

• Competing for: godliness (εὐσέβεια), love (ἀγάπη), reverent behavior (ἱεροπρεπής)
• Correct occupants: परमेश्वर दा डर-अदब (godliness), प्यार (love), सत्कार जोग चाल-चलण (reverent behavior)
• Fenced out: भक्ति (bhakti-marga devotee-deity exchange), प्रेम (Radha-Krishna romantic-devotional love)

B. मुक्ति / रीबर्थ-cycle space (liberation, rebirth)

• Competing for: salvation (σωτηρία), resurrection (carried from baseline), regeneration (παλιγγενεσία), eternal life (ζωὴ αἰώνιος)
• Correct occupants: उद्धार, मुर्दघरा चा जिंदा होना (baseline), पवित्तर आत्मा दुआरा नमां जीवन, सदा दी जिंदगी
• Fenced out: मुक्ति, पुनर्जन्म, आवागमन, मोक्ष

C. शक्ति-space (goddess-power, occult/impersonal force)

• Competing for: power of God (baseline), Holy Spirit
• Correct occupants: सामर्थ (baseline), पवित्तर आत्मा
• Fenced out: शक्ति (Bahu Fort Kali / Vaishno Devi divine-feminine-power association)

D. अवतार-space (periodic deity descent/manifestation)

• Competing for: incarnation (baseline), appearing/epiphaneia, Son of God, great God and Savior
• Correct occupants: मानखे दा रूप लैना (baseline), परगट होई/परगट होणा, परमेश्वर दा पुत्तर (baseline), साढा महान परमेश्वर ते उद्धार करनहार यीशु मसीह
• Fenced out: अवतार in every form, including compound derivatives

E. धरम-space (dharma, caste/lineage duty, ritual law)

• Competing for: law (baseline νόμος), righteousness (baseline), godliness, elder qualifications
• Correct occupants: व्यवस्था (baseline), धरमीपन (baseline), परमेश्वर दा डर-अदब
• Fenced out: bare धरम in any doctrinal sense tied to Dogra Rajput lineage-duty/honor

F. मन्नत / वरदान-space (vow-boon transactional economy — the single most locally distinctive risk in this curriculum)

• Competing for: grace, mercy, kindness, good works, spiritual gifts (baseline)
• Correct occupants: बिना कमाई दित्ती दया, दया, भलाई, नेक कम्म, आत्मिक दान (baseline)
• Fenced out: मन्नत दा फल, पुण्य, वरदान, and any works-secure-a-boon framing of नेक कम्म — this fence must be actively reasserted at Titus 3:5 (explicit denial) and 3:8/3:14 (explicit affirmation as fruit) since both poles occur within eight verses of each other.

G. Ritual-purity space (शुद्ध/भिट्ट vs. moral purity)

• Competing for: sin (baseline), defiled (μιαίνω), pure (ἁγνός), washing (λουτρόν)
• Correct occupants: पाप (baseline), मैला होया, पाक, धोणा
• Fenced out: भिट्ट, शुद्ध — with a special note that Titus 1:15 itself argues against a ritual-purity framework, making this verse doctrinally self-aware in a way that must not be flattened by an over-ritualized rendering.

H. इज्जत / honor-management space (Dogra Rajput lineage-honor culture)

• Competing for: submission (ὑποτάσσω), self-control (σώφρων), blameless (ἀνέγκλητος), elder qualifications generally
• Correct occupants: अधीन रौह्ना, आपे उप्पर काबू (वाला), दोष रहित
• Fenced out: any rendering that frames these as honor-preservation or shame-avoidance behaviors rather than Spirit-formed, gospel-shaped character

I. वंश / lineage space (Dogra Rajput genealogical consciousness)

• Competing for: genealogies (unprofitable, 3:9) vs. seed of David / Davidic covenant (baseline, positive)
• Correct occupants: बंस-परमपरा दी गल्लां (negative, 3:9 only) vs. दाऊद दे वंश चा (baseline, positive, elsewhere)
• Fenced out: any collapse of the two into a single undifferentiated “lineage-talk is bad” reading

---

4. Transliteration vs. Paraphrase Decisions

Item	Decision	Rationale
Jesus, Christ/Messiah, God (as names/titles)	Transliterate/reuse baseline	यीशु, मसीह, परमेश्वर already fixed; no reason to innovate.
Savior (σωτήρ)	Paraphrase, not transliterate	No transliterable Greek loanword tradition exists in Dogri for this; उद्धार करनहार keeps the semantic link to baseline’s उद्धार visible to learners moving between Romans and Titus material.
Regeneration, Renewal, Redemption, Godliness, Ungodliness, Good works, Trains/disciplines	Paraphrase (descriptive compounds)	These are exactly the terms where a single transliterated or borrowed Hindi word would either (a) not exist, or (b) drag in an unwanted devotional/cosmological association. Paraphrase allows the compound itself to carry a built-in doctrinal fence (e.g., जीवन not जनम).
Elder (πρεσβύτερος), Overseer (ἐπίσκοπος)	Paraphrase using existing Dogri/Punjabi community vocabulary (कलीसिया दा बड्डा, निगरान) rather than transliterating “presbyter/bishop”	A transliterated ecclesiastical loanword would read as foreign administrative jargon to a Class 8–10 reading-level audience; a descriptive phrase rooted in ordinary “assembly’s elder” and “one who watches over” language is more accessible and avoids importing denominational-office baggage absent from the Greek.
Titus, Crete/Cretans, Nicopolis, Zenas, Apollos, Artemas, Tychicus	Transliterate as proper names	Standard practice for geographic/personal proper nouns; verify each against the BSI Dogri Bible / established regional New Testament proper-name conventions before final lock-in (see §6 below — currently unconfirmed).
”The saying is trustworthy” formula (πιστὸς ὁ λόγος)	Paraphrase as a fixed formula, not transliterate	This is a repeated Pastoral-Epistles idiom, not a proper noun; a consistent Dogri formula (ऐह् गल्ल भरोसे जोग ऐ) serves cross-curriculum recognizability better than a borrowed phrase.
Amen-type liturgical transliterations (if present in closing, 3:15)	Transliterate per baseline convention	Consistent with the baseline’s rule for theological proper nouns like Amen/Hallelujah.

General principle applied throughout: transliterate proper names and already-settled theological proper nouns (Jesus, Christ, God, Amen); paraphrase with a doctrinally-fenced descriptive compound wherever the underlying Greek concept has no safe existing Dogri/Hindi/Punjabi word, or where every existing candidate is already occupied by a competing Duggar Hindu devotional or Dogra Rajput socio-honor concept.

5. Ranked List of Highest-Risk Ambiguities in Titus

Ranked by combined severity (doctrinal centrality × collision salience in the Duggar cultural context):

1. παλιγγενεσία / regeneration (Titus 3:5) — Highest risk in the entire curriculum. The literal “again-birth” sense sits directly on top of the region’s live, popular rebirth-cycle cosmology (पुनर्जन्म, आवागमन). No existing word is safe; only a purpose-built, जीवन-rooted compound with mandatory theologian review on every occurrence resolves this.

2. ὁ μέγας θεὸς καὶ σωτήρ / “great God and Savior” (Titus 2:13) — A single Greek noun phrase whose grammar itself is the doctrinal claim (one referent, not two). Any split or softened rendering directly weakens an explicit deity-of-Christ affirmation, in a context (Raghunath Mandir Rama-avatar devotion) primed to reabsorb a softened Christ into an “another great manifested being” category.

3. καλὰ/ἀγαθὰ ἔργα / “good works” set against 3:5’s explicit denial and 3:8/3:14’s explicit affirmation — The fruit-not-root distinction is theologically load-bearing but has no automatic grammatical marker in Dogri; without a standing translator note at each occurrence, the passage risks being flattened into either “salvation by good deeds” (collapsing into पुण्य/mannat logic) or “good deeds don’t matter” (collapsing the letter’s own closing exhortations).

4. λυτρόω / redemption (Titus 2:14) alongside σωτηρία / salvation (3:5) — Both sit immediately beside मुक्ति (moksha-style liberation from the rebirth cycle), already forbidden in the baseline for “salvation” but newly at risk again here because “redeem…from all lawlessness” (2:14) could be misheard as an escape-from-cycle statement rather than a costly, personal, historical ransom.

5. εὐσέβεια/ἀσέβεια / godliness–ungodliness (Titus 1:1, 2:12) and the whole σώφρων family (self-control) — Structurally central to “Grace That Trains for Godly Living” but standing directly beside भक्ति (bhakti-devotionalism) and इज्जत-based honor-management; a mistranslation here would not merely blur one verse but recolor the letter’s entire ethical vision.

6. γενεαλογία / unprofitable genealogies (Titus 3:9) vs. Davidic lineage theology (baseline) — Lower doctrinal centrality than items 1–5 but a distinctive internal-consistency risk unique to this curriculum’s Dogra Rajput vansh-conscious audience; a careless rendering could be heard as devaluing lineage theology the curriculum affirms elsewhere.

7. ὑποτάσσω / submission (2:5, 2:9, 3:1) — High risk not because the concept is theologically obscure but because the nearest fluent-sounding Dogri register (izzat-preservation deference) supplies the wrong motivational grounding (honor/shame rather than gospel-shaped voluntary gentleness) while sounding perfectly natural — precisely the “false friend” pattern this whole Language Package exists to guard against.

8. λαὸς περιούσιος / treasured-possession people (2:14) — Risk of a birthright-elite misreading given Dogra Rajput lineage-honor culture; moderate risk because the surrounding verses (2:11–14) already supply strong grace-framing that partially guards against it.

9. ἱεροπρεπής / reverent behavior (2:3) and κοσμέω / adorn (2:10) — Both Greek roots carry latent temple/sacral-decoration associations that must be actively fenced from Raghunath Mandir/Bahu Fort ceremonial-splendor imagery, paralleling the baseline’s existing caution on δόξα/glory; moderate risk, contained by a single translator note each.

10. μιαίνω / defiled (1:15) — Lower risk than items above only because the verse is self-correcting in context (Paul is himself dismantling a ritual-purity framework), but requires a translator note or the self-correction will be lost on readers accustomed to शुद्ध/भिट्ट purity categories from temple and pilgrimage practice.

---

6. Proper Nouns Requiring Confirmation Against the BSI Dogri Bible

The following Titus-specific proper names are not attested in the Romans baseline and must be confirmed against the Bible Society of India’s Dogri Bible (or, absent an available Dogri NT, the nearest attested regional convention) before Phase 2 deployment. Provisional transliterated forms below are placeholders only:

English	Provisional Dogri Transliteration	Occurrence	Confirmation Status
Titus	तीतुस	1:4 and throughout (epistolary addressee)	Unconfirmed — verify against BSI Dogri Bible
Crete / Cretans	क्रेते / क्रेती लोक	1:5, 1:12	Unconfirmed
Nicopolis	निकुपुलिस	3:12	Unconfirmed
Zenas	जेनास	3:13	Unconfirmed
Apollos	अपुल्लोस	3:13	Unconfirmed (also occurs in 1 Corinthians tradition; check cross-curriculum consistency)
Artemas	अरतिमास	3:12	Unconfirmed
Tychicus	तुखिकुस	3:12 (implied companion list)	Unconfirmed

Cultural-sensitivity note (Titus 1:12): Paul’s quotation of the Cretan poet (“Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons”) is an ethnic-stereotype citation used for a specific rhetorical purpose (validating Titus’s need for firm correction on the island), not an endorsement of ethnic slander as a general practice. Phase 2 translation and teaching notes must frame this explicitly as a quoted, situational critique — not a transferable template for characterizing any Dogri-speaking community, caste group, or neighboring ethnic/regional population. Flag for native speaker review to ensure the framing lands correctly rather than reading as license for ethnic generalization.

---

7. Chapters Contributing Limited New Terminology (Explicitly Reviewed, Not Omitted)

• Titus 1:1–4 (salutation): reviewed. Contributes election (baseline, reused), apostle (baseline, reused), knowledge of the truth, eternal life, and the epistolary “grace and peace” formula (baseline, reused). No new gap beyond items already listed in the matrix.
• Titus 3:12–15 (travel instructions, closing greetings): reviewed. Contributes only proper names (§6 above) and unfruitful/profitable vocabulary (already captured under Sound Doctrine and Good Works). No additional doctrinal gap identified.

Both sections are confirmed reviewed and intentionally carry a lighter terminological footprint than the doctrinally dense 1:5–16, 2:1–15, and 3:1–11 spans; this is noted explicitly per the full-book-coverage mandate rather than left as a silent gap.

---

8. Summary of Recommended Actions for Phase 2 Pre-flight

1. Load this gap analysis alongside 08_core_glossary.md, translation_memory.json, and bible_term_registry.json.
2. Apply mandatory human theologian review to every occurrence of: regeneration/renewal (3:5), great God and Savior (2:13), redemption (2:14), godliness/ungodliness (1:1, 2:12), and all Savior (σωτήρ) occurrences (1:3,4; 2:10,13; 3:4,6).
3. Apply native speaker review to: submission occurrences (2:5, 2:9, 3:1), elder/overseer qualifications (1:5-9), genealogies (3:9), reverent behavior (2:3), adorn (2:10), and the Titus 1:12 Cretan-stereotype quotation.
4. Confirm all proper names in §6 against the BSI Dogri Bible before Phase 2 batch processing begins; treat as blocking items, not deferred cleanup.
5. Carry forward every crowded-neighborhood fence in §3.2 into the Phase 2 AI system prompt’s forbidden-substitution list, extending the baseline’s existing list with: भक्ति, प्रेम, पुण्य, वरदान, मन्नत दा फल, आवागमन, भिट्ट, शुद्ध (as already forbidden), plus इज्जत-framed submission/self-control language and honor-preservation framings generally.
