Exegesis

Two coordinated prepositional phrases, kai eis phylakēn kai eis thanaton {καὶ εἰς φυλακὴν καὶ εἰς θάνατον | kaí eis phy-la-kḕn kaí eis thá-na-ton}, stand in parallel, forming a rhetorical gradation from imprisonment to death. The repeated kai ‘and’ heightens the breadth and extremity of the pledge. In translation, the core Greek word order is preserved in the formal rendering to retain emphasis on being “ready,” while the dynamic rendering slightly reshapes the coordination (“not only… but even…”) to capture the intensifying parallelism for contemporary readers.

In contextLuke 22:33

But he said to Him, “Lord , I am ready to go with You, both into prison and into death.”
