Exegesis
The relative clause hoi onoma Bariesou {ᾧ ὄνομα Βαριησοῦ | hôi ó-no-ma ba-ri-ē-soû} uses a dative relative pronoun with a predicate nominative ‘name’ to give his name, a common Greek idiom literally meaning ‘to whom the name was Bar-Jesus’. English rendering smooths the participial construction into a temporal clause and rearranges the appositional list into natural descriptive order while preserving the cumulative characterization and the climactic placement of the name.
