Exegesis
The genitive phrase tou kuriou Iesou {τοῦ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ | toû kuríou Iēsoû} depends on onoma, identifying whose name defines this new allegiance: that of the Lord Jesus. In translation, the temporal participle is rendered with “when they heard” to preserve its prior, enabling action, while eis to onoma is kept as “into the name” to retain the relational and initiatory nuance of baptism into the authority and person of the Lord.
Root and etymology
Yeshuayod–shin–vav–ayin
