Exegesis
Inside the quotation, the articular infinitive Me-tà to ge-nés-thai me e-keî {Μετὰ τὸ γενέσθαι με ἐκεῖ | Me-tà to ge-nés-thai me e-keî} expresses “after I have been there,” and the impersonal verb deî governs the pronoun me and infinitive i-deîn, yielding “it is necessary for me to see Rome also,” reflecting a sense of compelled obligation in Luke’s narrative flow.
