Exegesis
Its object is the accusative phrase ton logon tou kyriou {τὸν λόγον τοῦ κυρίου | tòn Ló-gon tou ky-RÍ-ou} ‘the word of the Lord’, where the genitive tou kyriou is most naturally taken as a subjective genitive, indicating that the message belongs to or originates from the Lord. The English renderings preserve the temporal dative as a prepositional phrase “on the coming/next Sabbath,” maintain the passive nuance in the formal version to reflect the Greek voice, and express the infinitive of purpose with “to hear” or “to listen to,” keeping the focus on the collective eagerness to receive the Lord’s message.
