Exegesis

The reported claim heōrakamen ton kyrion {Ἑωράκαμεν τὸν κύριον | he-ō-rá-ka-men tón ký-ri-on} ‘we have seen the Lord’ uses the perfect to stress an action completed in the past whose effects still stand in the present.

eis tēn pleuran autou {ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτοῦ... εἰς τὸν τύπον τῶν ἥλων... εἰς τὴν πλευρὰν αὐτοῦ | en taîs kher-sìn au-toû... eis tón tú-pon tôn hḗ-lōn... eis tḕn pleu-rán au-toû} narrows the focus from seeing to touching and from the hands to the side, so the issue becomes physical verification of the crucifixion wounds.
