Exegesis

The question Tis ei kyrie {Τίς εἶ κύριε | Tís eî ký-ri-e} is a straightforward interrogative clause, with the interrogative pronoun Tis in the nominative functioning as predicate nominative and ei as the second person singular verb; the vocative kyrie marks direct, reverential address in the moment of encounter.
