Exegesis
The infinitive clause einai ton christon Iēsoun {εἶναι τὸν χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν | eî-nai ton khris-tón Iē-soûn} is an accusative-infinitive construction dependent on epideiknys, stating the content of the demonstration: that Jesus is the Christ. In English this is rendered with a finite clause “proving that Jesus is the Christ” to preserve clarity and emphasis on the scriptural basis.
In context — Acts 18:28
For he was forcefully refuting the Jews in public, proving through the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.
