Exegesis
The predicate adjective pleres {πλήρης | plḗ-rēs} ‘full’ is expanded by two genitive modifiers pantos dolou {παντὸς δόλου | pán-tos dó-lou} ‘of all deceit’ and pases rhadiourgias {πάσης ῥᾳδιουργίας | pá-sēs rha-di-our-gí-as} ‘of all villainy’, forming a piling-up of accusatory descriptions.
The address then shifts to vocative noun phrases: huie diabolou {υἱὲ διαβόλου | hui-é di-á-bo-lou} ‘son of the devil’ and echthre pases dikaiosynes {ἐχθρὲ πάσης δικαιοσύνης | ech-thré pá-sēs di-kai-o-sý-nēs} ‘enemy of all righteousness’, which function appositionally to the implied “you” and frame the addressee’s identity in stark spiritual opposition.
In context — Acts 13:10
And he said, “O you full of all deceit and all villainy, son of the devil, enemy of all righteousness, will you not stop perverting the straight ways of the Lord ?”
