Exegesis

Within this clause, the articular noun phrase he graphe {ἡ γραφὴ | hē gra-phḗ} ‘the Scripture’ uses the article to signal a recognized body of sacred writings, and serves as the subject of the verb plerothe {πληρωθῇ | plē-rō-thêi} ‘might be fulfilled’. The aorist passive subjunctive indicates a divinely directed fulfillment viewed as a complete event, with the passive voice implying God as the ultimate agent.
