Exegesis
The verse begins with the main clause paredoka gar hymin en protois {Παρέδωκα γὰρ ὑμῖν ἐν πρώτοις | Parédōka gár hymîn en prṓtois}, where the aorist verb paredoka presents Paul’s completed act of transmitting the tradition, and the adverbial phrase en protois marks this content as primary in significance.
