Exegesis
The prepositional phrase ex anastaseōs nekrōn {ἐξ ἀναστάσεως νεκρῶν | ex a-na-stá-se-ōs ne-krôn} marks the sphere from which He is first, while the verb mellei {μέλλει | mél-lei} takes the infinitive katangellein {καταγγέλλειν | ka-tan-gél-lein} to express destined action.
In context — Acts 26:23
That the Christ must suffer, and that, as the first from the resurrection of the dead, He is to proclaim light both to the people and to the nations.
