Exegesis
The noun huios {υἱὸς | huiós} “son” is expanded by two genitives: gynaikos Ioudaias pistes {γυναικὸς Ἰουδαίας πιστῆς | gynaikós Ioudaías pistês} on his mother’s Jewish faith, then patros de Hellenos {πατρὸς δὲ Ἕλληνος | patrós dè Héllēnos} marking his Greek father by contrast. The formal version preserves the single Greek sentence’s flow, while the dynamic version breaks into two clauses for clarity.
In context — Acts 16:1
He came also to Derbe and to Lystra, and look, a certain disciple was there named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer, but with a Greek father .
