Cultural and doctrinal context: Ritual phrases and names of God appear in formulae. Translators must balance fidelity with sensitivity, indicating when text is theological, devotional, or ritual-technical. Example: A formula invoking a divine name can be glossed as “theological invocation” while preserving the original phrase and providing footnotes on traditional restrictions.
