Exegesis
This is followed by four parallel prepositional phrases introduced by ex {ἐξ | ex} plus a genitive noun, each modified by holes tes {ὅλης τῆς | hólēs tês} and concluded with sou {σου | soû}.
Thus: ex holes tes kardias sou {ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας σου | ex hólēs tês kardías soû} ‘from all your heart’, then similarly with psuches, dianoias, and ischyos. The genitive with ex expresses source and extent, idiomatically rendered “with all,” emphasizing totality.
In context — Mark 12:30
And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul , and with all your mind, and with all your strength.
