Exegesis

The subject ho Paulos {ὁ Παῦλος | ho Paû-los} is followed by a hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti} clause that reports the content of his perception: to hen meros estin Saddoukaion, to de heteron Pharisaion {τὸ ἓν μέρος ἐστὶν Σαδδουκαίων τὸ δὲ ἕτερον Φαρισαίων | tò hèn méros estìn Saddou-kaí-ōn, tò dè héteron Pharisaí-ōn}. This balanced structure, marked by to hen … to de heteron, underscores the internal division of the body he faces.
