Hello again...hope I find you all well.

I am wondering about using the genitive in a particular type of sentence construction. For instance, how should the genitive of is vir be written in stating that "The essential nature of this man is flsehood/untruth"? Would the proper construction be: Essentia is viri falsitas est, or rather Essentia eius viri falsitas est, or rather still Essentia viri eius falsitas est (with the qualifier following the noun vir)?...

Particular use of the genitive case.
