Exegesis
The confession is a subject–predicate clause with houtos ho anthrōpos {οὗτος ὁ ἄνθρωπος | hoû-tos ho án-thrō-pos} ‘this man’ as the subject and huios theou ēn {υἱὸς θεοῦ ἦν | hui-ós the-oû ēn} ‘was Son of God’ as predicate, the anarthrous huios indicating a titular designation. In translation, participles render as finite verbs to produce natural English while preserving the Christological force of “Son of God.”
In context — Mark 15:39
And when the centurion who was standing opposite Him saw that He had breathed His last in this way, He said, “Truly, this man was the Son of God .”
