Exegesis
The narrative marker ἐγένετο {ἐγένετο | e-gé-ne-to} “it happened” introduces the first event with an aorist middle indicative governing the infinitive ἀποθανεῖν {ἀποθανεῖν | a-po-tha-neîn} “to die,” taking τὸν πτωχὸν {τὸν πτωχὸν | tòn ptō-chón} as its accusative object.
The prepositional phrase εἰς τὸν κόλπον Ἀβραάμ {εἰς τὸν κόλπον Ἀβραάμ | eîs tòn kól-pon A-bra-ám} uses εἰς with the accusative to indicate motion into a place, and κόλπος “bosom” evokes intimate fellowship with Abraham.
