Exegesis

The relative pronoun hō {ᾧ | hō} ‘to which’ introduces a relative clause with the adverb engys {ἐγγὺς | en-gŷs} ‘near’ preceding the imperfect verb ēn {ἦν | ēn} ‘was’, focusing on spatial proximity: “near which was the city of Lasea.” This structure yields a natural English order while preserving the temporal and spatial relations of the Greek.
