Exegesis
The relative clause hon egō katangellō hymin {ὃν ἐγὼ καταγγέλλω ὑμῖν | hon e-gṓ ka-tang-gél-lō hy-mîn} adds focus on Paul’s own proclamation through the explicit egō ‘I’. In translation, the participial phrase is rendered as an introductory finite clause to maintain natural English word order, while the two hoti-clauses are kept as “that”-clauses to preserve the tight logical link between explanation and its christological content.
In context — Acts 17:3
Explaining thoroughly and setting forth that the Christ had to suffer and to rise from the dead, and that this Jesus whom I proclaim to you is the Christ.
