EI pa-thê-TOS ho khri-STOS EI PRO-tos eks a-na-STA-se-ôs ne-KRÔN PHÔS MEL-lei ka-ta-NGEL-lein tôi te la-ÔI kai tois ETH-ne-sin
Exegesis
The fronted accusative phōs {φῶς | phôs} receives emphasis by preceding its verb–infinitive complement, and the dative tō te laō kai tois ethnēsin {τῷ τε λαῷ καὶ τοῖς ἔθνεσιν | tôi te la-ôi kaí toîs éth-ne-sin} uses the correlative te…kai to bind “the people” and “the nations” as joint recipients of the proclamation.
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.
