PHÔS EIS a-po-KA-ly-psin e-THNÔN KAI DO-ksan la-OU sou is-ra-ÊL
Exegesis
The first, apokalypsin ethnon {ἀποκάλυψιν ἐθνῶν | apokálupsin ethnôn}, indicates purpose (“for revelation” to Gentile nations), and the second, doxan laou sou Israel {δόξαν λαοῦ σου Ἰσραήλ | dóxan laoû sou Israḗl}, expresses the honor granted to Israel. The accusative case for apokalypsin and doxan with eis marks intended outcomes of the divine light, while the genitives of ethnon and laou sou Israel specify universal beneficiaries and particular covenant recipients.
In context — Luke 2:32
A light for revelation to the nations , and glory for Your people Israel.
