Exegesis
The final sequence, kai pros auton eleusometha kai monen par auto poiesometha {καὶ πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐλευσόμεθα καὶ μονὴν παρʼ αὐτῷ ποιησόμεθα | kaí pros au-tón e-leu-só-me-tha kai mo-nḗn par au-tō poi-ḗ-so-me-tha}, shifts to first person plural, joining Father and Son in a shared future action.
The preposition pros {πρὸς | pros} marks movement “toward” the believer, while monē {μονή | mo-nḗ} evokes stable indwelling rather than a brief visit. The paired future middle verbs eleusometha and poiesometha create a deliberate cadence of coming and making, emphasizing that divine presence is personal, intentional, and lasting.
