Exegesis
The nominal clause ho hagios tou theou {ὁ ἅγιος τοῦ θεοῦ | ho há-gios tou the-oû} functions as a Christological title, with the substantive adjective and genitive indicating divine consecration. The progression from confrontation to confession is mirrored in the structure and preserved in translation.
In context — Mark 1:24
He said, “What is there between us and You, Jesus the Nazarene? Did You come to destroy us? I know You, who You are—the Holy One of God .”
