Exegesis
The focus then expands from economic to religious and civic concerns with the second object, to tēs megalēs theas Artemidos hieron {τὸ τῆς μεγάλης θεᾶς Ἀρτέμιδος ἱερὸν | tò tēs me-gá-lēs the-âs Ar-té-mi-dos hi-e-rón}, where the article and cascading genitives emphasize the exalted status of “the temple of the great goddess Artemis.”
In context — Acts 19:27
Not only is this part of ours in danger of falling into disgrace, but also the temple of the great goddess Artemis may be reckoned as nothing and is about to be deposed from her magnificence —she whom all Asia and the inhabited world worship .
