Exegesis
The structure ho anthropos ho eipōn {ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ εἰπών | ho án-thrō-pos ho ei-pṓn} uses a repeated article in the attributive position: first with the noun “the man,” then with the participle “the one who said,” creating a tightly bound nominal phrase “the man who said.” Instead of a relative pronoun, the Greek uses the article plus participle construction to express a defining relative clause.
Root and etymology
heorteta–omicron–rho–tau
