Exegesis
This is followed by a relative clause hōn te hoi prophētai elalēsan mellontōn ginesthai kai Mōysēs {ὧν τε οἱ προφῆται ἐλάλησαν μελλόντων γίνεσθαι καὶ Μωϋσῆς | hōn te hoi prophêtai elálēsan mellóntōn gínesthai kai Mōusēs}, where the genitive relative pronoun hōn connects back to “things,” and mellontōn ginesthai {μελλόντων γίνεσθαι | mellóntōn gínesthai} forms a periphrastic idea of events “about to happen.” The coordination of hoi prophētai and Mōysēs with te…kai emphasizes that both the prophetic corpus and Moses together foretold these events. In translation, the participial constructions are rendered as finite clauses or adverbial phrases (“having obtained help,” “sharing my testimony”) to maintain clarity while preserving the causal and durative relationships, and the dative pair is expressed inclusively (“small and great,” “important and unimportant alike”) to reflect the breadth of Paul’s witness.
In context — Acts 26:22
Therefore, having obtained help from God , I have stood until this day, testifying to both small and great , saying nothing except what the prophets and Moses said would come to pass.
