The coordinated genitives eidolothytōn {εἰδωλοθύτων | ei-dō-lo-thý-tōn} ‘things sacrificed to idols’, haimatos {αἵματος | haí-ma-tos} ‘blood’, pniktōn {πνικτῶν | pni-ktôn} ‘things strangled’, and porneias {πορνείας | por-neí-as} ‘sexual immorality’ are linked by repeated kai {καὶ | kaí} ‘and’, forming a catalog of binding requirements for Gentile believers.
In context — Acts 15:29
Abstain from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality ; if you keep yourselves from these, you will do well . Farewell.
