Exegesis
The prepositional phrase ek tou genematos tes ampelou {ἐκ τοῦ γενήματος τῆς ἀμπέλου | ek toû ge-nḗ-ma-tos tês am-pé-lou} is a genitive chain, literally “from the fruit of the vine,” a traditional Jewish idiom for wine; this was preserved as a phrase in the formal rendering and made explicit as “wine” in the dynamic rendering.
The temporal limit is given by heos tes hemeras ekeines {ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ἐκείνης | hé-ōs tês hē-mé-ras e-keí-nēs} ‘until that day’, with heos introducing a terminus ad quem, and ekeines specifying a particular eschatological day.
