Exegesis
The inferential conjunction dio {διὸ | diò} ‘therefore’ marks a logical consequence, introducing the main action proēgagon auton {προήγαγον αὐτὸν | proḗgagon autón} ‘I brought him forth’ and the prepositional phrase eph hymōn {ἐφʼ ὑμῶν | eph hymôn} ‘before you (plural)’, which indicates the wider audience.
