Exegesis

The purpose conjunction hopōs {ὅπως | hópōs} introduces the clause katagagē auton eis hymas {καταγάγῃ αὐτὸν εἰς ὑμᾶς | katagágē autón eis hymâs}, expressing the intended result that the commander bring “him” down to the conspirators.

The following comparative construction hōs mellontas diaginōskein akribesteron {ὡς μέλλοντας διαγινώσκειν ἀκριβέστερον | hōs méllontas diaginṓskein akribésteron} uses hōs “as if” with a participle plus infinitive to cast the supposed examination as a mere pretext for the request.
