In Philippians 3:20, the nominative singular neuter form occurs in the statement that citizenship is already in heaven; the APB renders the clause, "For our citizenship is already in heaven," and continues with awaiting a Savior from it.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Philippians 3:20, the APB presents the clause as "our citizenship is already in heaven." This wording confirms the clause's overall presentation rather than isolating every contribution of the term.
