Exegesis
The two peri {περὶ | pe-rí} ‘concerning’ phrases are coordinated by kai {καὶ | kaí} ‘and’ to create a balanced double focus: first on the matheton autou {μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ | ma-thē-tōn au-toû} ‘of His disciples,’ then on the didaches autou {διδαχῆς αὐτοῦ | di-da-chês au-toû} ‘of His teaching.’ The repetition of peri produces a measured, almost judicial symmetry, showing that the high priest is examining both Jesus’ community and the content of His instruction.
