Exegesis
The prepositional phrase en philemati hagio {ἐν φιλήματι ἁγίῳ | en philḗmati hagíō} “in a holy kiss” functions as a manner phrase, with the adjective hagio modifying philemati to convey consecrated fellowship. The translation separates the clauses into two sentences to mirror the shift from third person narrative to second person exhortation and retains the cultural nuance of the holy kiss as a distinct Christian greeting.
In context — 1 Corinthians 16:20
All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss .
