Exegesis
The articular adjective to pneumatikon {τὸ πνευματικὸν | tò pneu-ma-ti-kón} functions substantivally to denote the “spiritual” mode of existence, which is then contrasted by the adversative alla {ἀλλὰ | allà} and the articular substantive to psuchikon {τὸ ψυχικόν | tò psu-chi-kón}, representing the “natural” state tied to the soul.
The temporal adverb epeita {ἔπειτα | é-pei-ta} signals a subsequent phase, reintroducing to pneumatikon {τὸ πνευματικόν | tò pneu-ma-ti-kón} to frame the progression: not first the spiritual but the natural; then the spiritual. This framing highlights the shift from present natural existence to future spiritual existence.
Root and etymology
