Exegesis
The core of the first condition combines the main verb adikō {ἀδικῶ | adikô} ‘I do wrong’ with the coordinated clause introduced by kai {καὶ | kaí} and the expression axion thanatou pepracha ti {ἄξιον θανάτου πέπραχά τι | áxion thanátou pépracha ti}. Here the adjective axion governs the genitive thanatou in a genitive of value, while ti functions as an indefinite object of pepracha, yielding the sense “have done anything worthy of death.”
Root and etymology
axiosalpha–xi–iota–omicron–sigma
“worthy, of equal value”
In context — Acts 25:11
If therefore I do wrong and have committed anything worthy of death , I do not refuse to die. But if there is nothing of the things these men accuse me of, no one is able to grant me to them. I appeal to Caesar.
