Exegesis
The second noun phrase, ho deuteros anthropos {ὁ δεύτερος ἄνθρωπος | ho deú-te-ros án-thrō-pos} “the second man,” is similarly qualified by ex ouranou {ἐξ οὐρανοῦ | ex ou-ra-noû} “from heaven,” with ex as the vowel-enhanced form of ek. The repetition of the structure—definite article plus ordinal plus noun plus prepositional qualifier—creates a deliberate contrast between earthly and heavenly origins.
