Exegesis

This is followed by a pair of parallel prepositional phrases, ek tes ges sou {ἐκ τῆς γῆς σου | ek tês gês sou} and ek tes syngeneias sou {ἐκ τῆς συγγενείας σου | ek tês syng-ge-neí-as sou}, which structurally balance each other and highlight two spheres of separation: geographical territory and family ties.
