Exegesis
The phrase eis tòn kósmōn {εἰς τὸν κόσμον | eis tòn kósmōn} ‘into the world’ denotes the Son’s mission scope, and the purpose clause hína zḗsōmen di’ autoû {ἵνα ζήσωμεν διʼ αὐτοῦ | hína zḗsōmen di’ autoû} ‘so that we might live through Him’ uses the aorist subjunctive to express intended outcome, preserving the logical progression from divine initiative to human participation in life.
In context — 1 John 4:9
In this the love of God was revealed among us, that God has sent His unique Son into the world so that we might live through Him.
