Exegesis

A second relative element, hōn {ὧν | hōn} “of whom,” introduces a participial clause anatheōrountes tēn ekbasin tēs anastrophēs {ἀναθεωροῦντες τὴν ἔκβασιν τῆς ἀναστροφῆς | a-na-the-ō-roûn-tes tēn ék-ba-sin tēs a-na-stro-phēs}. This nominative participle, coordinated with the implied subject “you,” expresses attendant circumstance: as the readers are “thoughtfully considering the outcome of their conduct.” The genitive tēs anastrophēs links “outcome” closely with the whole pattern of life, not a single event.
