Exegesis
The verb isasi {ἴσασι | í-sa-si} “they know” appears near the end, with the subject pantes Ioudaioi {πάντες Ἰουδαῖοι | pán-tes I-ou-daî-oi} “all Jews” in nominative plural, giving the clause a marked order: object–circumstantial qualifiers–verb–subject. In translation, English word order is adjusted to subject–verb–object for clarity, but the comprehensiveness of the witnesses (“all the Jews”) and the continuity of Paul’s life from his earliest years in explicitly Jewish settings are preserved by keeping the temporal and locative phrases closely tied to “manner of life” or “how I have lived.”
